Pickpocket - Kate Nash

I pick you out my pocket, and you fell into the road

You asked me if I’d make it better

You asked me if we could grow old together

But you don’t mean a thing to me

So I’ll walk by quite happily

And now I guess that you’ve moved on as well

You took me to the bricks

We sat to build a wall

Keep peace intact

Protect your family

Keep them from harm

And please believe that they come crumbling down

The second you left town,

And now your family are gone, are gone

Understanding, take me, falling

Underground where I could not be found

Understanding, take me, falling

Underground where I could not be found

A letter that you wrote

That had been stashed inside my wall

Telling me all about the lies

It had been there for a quite a while

But it skipped out certain chapters

That i thought had really mattered

And now i feel like i missed out

Out, take me out, get out of town

Take me out, take me out, get out

Take me out, take me out, get out of town

Before it catches up with you

And you cannot be stand

Before it catches up with you

And you cannot be stand

Before it catches up with you

And you cannot be stand
