Cameo Brooch - The Courteeners

With your mother’s cameo brooch

Sat at the foot of her bed taking notes

You watched her since you were small

You are the new belle of the ball

With your father’s bruise on your arm

Telling me it’s no cause for alarm

Stop pushing people away

You can’t live your life this way

I will always be there for you

Whenever you need me, someone to talk to

With your sister’s love for her dad

You tell her it’s the piano teacher that has been bad

You said you hadn’t learnt your scales

She said you were going off the rails

But that was nothing to what you are now

And I’m not picking holes and I don’t want to now

But people are getting scared

We can see your bones, and we were unprepared

I will always be there for you

Whenever you need me, someone to talk to

I will always be there for you

Whenever you need me, someone to talk to

I will always be there for you

Whenever you need me, someone to talk to
