Pleasantries - Adam Green, Binki Shapiro

Binki:

What’s in between all those pleasantries?

How do you think most times

Adam:

I’ve been searching for some passion for my actions

Now you know that its full price

Binki:

You know how and you know why

You’re not the bedroom type

Adam:

Nightly fading, just what are you celebrating?

Old fashions burn your short fuse drive

Binki:

Whatever this is, the pleasure’s all his

Endlessly trailing my dreams

Adam:

No need to pretend I want you instead

To council her excellency

Binki:

Can’t be the first to say you’re the worst

Surely there’s one or two

Adam:

I care more if you act as though you like me

Then if you really do

Binki:

Living a lie to a song you can’t hide

The paintings are still in the tube

Adam:

I needed to fall, you need not crawl

I punish myself with you

Binki:

What was between all those pleasantries

What did you hope you’d find?

Adam:

I was waiting for the chance you never gave me

I’m still working on my line
