As Yourself

from Seasons of Limbo by Bomethius

/

lyrics

Let’s retire early on in our thirties
Like Elliott Smith and Jesus
The anthem of our party will be
“Just murder me.”

Scratching at your scalp
Trying to make sense of it all
But the warmth of reason
She won’t take your call

You’re out on your own
Who will forgive this loan
If only you’d known
Just a little before

Isn’t that just the way?
You sell yourself to yourself to pay
For the chance to say with the crowd
“Just murder me.”

Sure there’s no one else to blame
But all the same
I’ve been called to love you
Me myself someway

And the warmth of love
She’s gone away
And the warmth of reason
Did the same

Scratching at my scalp
Trying to make sense of it all
Won’t anyone take my call
Won’t anyone take my call
