Violence - Rose Kemp

Nothing but the ticking of the clocks, the slamming of the stocks

Nothing but the silence on a street, when we were meant to meet

There’s nothing else to find here

Listen to the witness in the dark, the turning of the lock

You don’t know why you’re still alone

The intimacy shown is enough to make me cetain

The stupidest thing I’ve ever done

But it was so much fun

Nothing like the setting of the sun when day had just begun

You left me silent by the phone and I didn’t like the tone

You quickly said goodbye with…

Your chilling heartless undertones of choice

The weapons in your voice, they leave me feeling empty

They leave me hollow to the core, like I couldn’t fail any more

Even if I tried to

To (x15)

Two three four

So I pick up the blankets the daylight is fading

And I’ve only just managed to raise my head

So I draw back the curtains at six in the evening

And I’ve only just gotten courage to get out of bed

And nothing is right in my head

No nothing is clear in my heart

I feel like my body is dead

The day doesn’t have to start here (x3)
