Plastik Hearts
You sauntered up and you said “How’s tricks?”
You can’t mix drugs with politics
So we took and talked and lost the plot
And after that everything seemed fine
In this distinct and beautiful collide
We drag each other’s worlds down under the tide
With intoxicated hands
Cold, cold hearts and well-laid plans
Are you listening?
Are you listening?
As the days, like the waves
Pile up behind you
Lalalalala
Keep it on
Melt my plastic heart and help me move on
Why can’t I move on?
How do we escape the great rails of pouring rain?
Go to a foreign I don’t know, a house in Spain
Going: la le la le la le la
Oh, how I’d kill to go
So, erect the ????
A life of buildings and medicine
We all make the same mistakes
Our pitfalls pull us together
Are you listening?
Are you listening?
As the days, like the waves
Pile up behind you
Lalalalala
Keep it on
Melt my plastic heart and help me move on
Why can’t I move on?
I’ve kicked this round my bedroom floor
The daylight hours but you wanted more
The time, the time has drifted away
Are you listening?
Are you listening?
As the days, like the waves
Decisively pull us under
Lalalalala
Keep it on
Melt my plastic heart and help me move on and on
There’s friends for life and acquaintances
There’s romance from great distances
There’s been so many casualties
But I cannot wallow over these
