Song Description

Coming to terms with the situation when a friend lets you down.

Lyrics

I'm gonna light a match in the morning
blow it out before the flame is gone,
and I'm gonna start a fire in the evening,
burn the truths that never came undone.

I'm gonna cut my hair in the morning,
scatter all the strands across the floor.
And I'm gonna lock the doors in the evening,
'cause I don't want you coming 'round no more.

Maybe it's just false pretense,
could even call it self defense,
it doesn't make a difference to me.
'Cause though I've never worked this hard
to get my mind to disregard,
I'd rather be in better company.

I'm gonna hum a tune in the morning,
shout the chorus while the speakers play.
And I'm gonna write a song in the evening
with all the words I never got to say.

If I gave it one more thought
remembering what I once forgot,
you'd take the only thing I've got from me.
So I left it all behind,
tossed the frames to clear my mind,
moved along and now I finally see.

I'm gonna hum a tune in the morning,
shout the chorus while the speakers play.
And I'm gonna write a song in the evening,
with all the words I never got to say.
