Matilda

歌詞

Left in the corner collecting dust Patiently waiting while my fingers rust I was locked in the coffin case Not even on display As you fret my frets decay You pick up your other and you strum away I listen from the other room Try to pull you out of tune Thought I was everything you need Thought at least you'd want to see it through And I was caught in between Giving up and calling out to you Am I coming through? Now you don't even write the chords down You don't even play me anyhow anymore Now you just keep cranking them out Like you're trying to numb yourself With all this work but it's just not working out George and his lover they gently weep But I don't even get to breathe I hardly make a sound And I'm totally unwound, it's like All my flaws have become the things That make you want to destroy something And the reasons you started are lost Now that the feeling has worn off Thought I was everything you need Though at least you'd want to see it through Your voice follows me You sing perfectly out of tune I thought we had more time I thought I could make it up somehow I try to weave between the lines I try to turn myself up loud Can you hear me now? Now you don't even write the chords down You don't even play me anyhow anymore Now you just keep cranking them out Like you're trying to numb yourself And I'm just A different drug, something that you took for granted Another love that you abandoned right when It starts to count you don't even write the chords down You don't even play me anyhow 'Cause it's only work and it's just not working out
