Verse 1

There's you you're sleeping over there

Whilst me, I'm sitting here

With so much sea between us

I can't make it much more clear

There'll be no time for crying

We won't make it more than six

I could change my plea to guilty

But I don't think it would stick

Refrain

Still those are the ratings far too easy to despi..ise

You've said so much in silence now [1: I truly am 2: indeed I am]

+ (-9) (-9): x32020

disgui..i..i..ised

[repeat intro (w/celeste both times)]

Verse 2

Let him who fears his heart alone

Stand up and make a speech

For him perhaps an emperor's throne

If he could only speak

Far too few and far too fallow

Ashamed I'll heed the cry

Be with me when I need a drink

Be with me when I die

[repeat refrain]

Coda

(organ solo over intro chord progression to fade)
