Zeros - King Midas Sound

I can never save you

I couldn’t even save myself

We were happy with everything

Except each other

Our hate for the world

Spewed from our mouths like venom

And I stuck to you

'Cos it was better than sticking to nothing

Your faults with perfectly with mine

And made a vice-like grip

But I could never save you

I couldn’t even save myself

We only left the house at night

When there were less people on the streets

I wanted to feel what you felt

You wanted to feel what I felt

You scraped my name on your stomach

I scraped your name on mines

You drank as much as I drank

And I ate as much as you ate

The only time you parted

Was to go to the toilet

We consumed each other

We became feral

We lost weight

We turned pale

We fucked like wild animals

We stole leather jackets and jewelry

We were bored

We were beyond bored

I can never save you

I could barely save myself

I’ve seen lone (?)

And everyone you met were idiots

We giggle when they talk to us

We smell their skunk and Red Stripe

We were so angry with the world

We could barely bare to be in it

Until we turned our anger on each other

Picking at each other

Down to the clean bare bones

I can never save you

I could barely save myself
