Muddied Waters (Single)

by Bomethius

/

about

Unfortunately, this song didn't quite fit the narrative well enough to make it onto the final cut of 'Intimatitudes'... So, while it didn't make the final cut there, it is at least available here. I thought it only fair that it should be released, even if it won't be on the album.

lyrics

Lyrics:

I thought I loved you
I thought I believed

It seems the waters were muddied
And now we’re in too deep
Within our nightmare’s dream

It’s been six months, and still you can’t believe it.
It’s been a fortnight since I last heard you

I can't believe it’s finally been this long...
I can’t believe

I couldn’t reject your calls forever
and now my voicemail’s full of tears.
How was it so easy, you ask
I feel your voice quiver over your flask
But why can't I hang up the phone

I feel you crying in my bones
And if you must know… (you’re not alone)

My heart began breaking that first night
Each time you left, I bled a little bit more
And suddenly there wasn't much left to fight for

Now that I’ve left, do you feel any poorer?
Now that I’ve left, do you know what you’ve lost?

Don’t understand why any of this is happening.
There was time when I saved time just for you.
Whom do you take for granted now?

Do the possibilities still overwhelm you?
The end is always just around the corner,
Your problems feel even less than I don’t.

You’re waining it’s true.
I’ve said I’m sorry for the last time
You’re waining it’s true.
