Blackness

Drive through the fields tonight
Stop on our usual hill
Turn up the new tunes
Admit it, you need her still

Speed up when I'm coming up
She laughs in time with the track
Tonight is a school night
And it's time we got her back

Race through the trees
Brave the back roads with ease
They couldn't catch us tonight
On the beach at the dock

You bring the cans and we'll talk
Grab me in case I take flight
Ignorance is the worst part
She wasn't out on Friday night

I just wanted to catch her eye
Then ignore, prove I'm alright
And it took hours to walk home
And I had a few on my own

I wanted to hear her
But he answered the phone
When she started to wear make-up
New clothes and new hair

That's when her sex-drive died
Drive me up to the door
You know I've done it before
At least I'll know I've tried

Just keep your foot down and it'll all be fine
If we can keep up with the broken line
The corpses we've seen are just empty bags
As we dismiss our broken hearts as slags

Slow down when I come down
This is the only love
Just us and the bright green sky
Glowing and pulsing above
