Unpolished

If you say, I'll stay no more
I can run away but sore
Ooooh the memories won't forge
Onto another crash test plan from years ago.

Twice we went from grey skies and cloudy hues
Twice we deafened each other from screaming the blues
But oooooh those blues were meant for me and you
Time went back and left us dry.

The well was underground from layers of soot
Water continues to flow but never to recover from it
No sense now because there is no benefit

And we will always be over (even if we never started)
We will always run from each other
We will always take cover
But there never was a shelter for the two of us together.

The world is and never was a place for lovers
And we could conspire against it until we're dead
But this isn't the time or the place for
Ink stains on the bedsheets and lover from a pen
Writing and dreaming is nothing
when you have nothing to show for it.

And we will always be over (even if we never started)
We will always run from each other
We will always take cover
But there never was a shelter for the two of us together.
