Walking Backwards

from Songs About Tanks LP by SLONK

/

lyrics

I've been walking backwards
So I don't see it coming
But I walk in circles...
My sight's self-humbled
By these rose-tinted goggles
I bought for myself
But they're not enough;
They make no difference at all

Why do I beg
When everything I said was enough?
Abrade me down.

I got the sea view at a hotel
no one visits, or knows about
And I slept there all day
Next to my suitcase stuffed with bibles,
Bars of soap and fresh towels
It was the loneliest I've ever woke
It makes no difference;
Let the bath run

Why do I beg
When everything I said was enough?
Abrade me down with that file
Until I'm as smooth as the skies
That surround my hotel

Sat next to you
The hardest thing to do is know
Hate's a chore.
