Borstal

Stuck inside like the boys up in the borstal

Wasn’t lying when I said I was remorseful, yeah, yeah

Stuck in time like the boys up in the borstal, yeah, yeah

If you don’t wanna forgive me

I won’t force you, yeah, yeah

Stuck in time like the boys up in the borstal, yeah

But would I lie to you really, would I lie to you?

Is this life just a pedal on a bicycle?

Push it 'round and 'round and 'round and 'round the bend

Stuck inside my ways, I can’t pretend

I wouldn’t lie to you really, would I lie to you?

Is this life just a pedal on a bicycle?

Push it 'round and 'round and 'round and 'round the bend

Time just holds its breath while I descend

Lost all time but it wasn’t our fault

Dyschronometria Donnie Darko’s

Travelled far though

Seen the stars go

Placed her heart in the jar I left my marbles in

When the night came calling

It left a rotten fucking stench

Plus a body on the bed made of chalk skin

And you’re all in

Back to life before the morning

Like a primate on all fours

I crawl into you

But would I lie to you really, would I lie to you?

Is this life just a pedal on a bicycle?

Push it 'round and 'round and 'round and 'round the bend

Stuck inside my ways, I can’t pretend

I wouldn’t lie to you really, would I lie to you?

Is this life just a pedal on a bicycle?

Push it 'round and 'round and 'round and 'round the bend

Time just holds its breath while I descend

Is the ashtray full or is the ashtray half empty?

Apologise in advance if you wanna be let down gently

I’m playing knock down ginger on every lane in my memory

Get me out of here pain and debt free

Air calls hundred times, beg you text me?

Can’t you see what I want

Left alone, let me grow

Like two peas in a pod, let me

Chase freedom and head to the exit

Trapped in a cycle, ain’t gonna brake when the red hits

When she wants you home

And you know you’re making a death wish

Don’t I get another two anyway?

Ah, fuck it, there’s extras

Silly Billy’s on the run, burning bridges in the distance

So you’ll see us as we come, it’s lit

Embers on the last page

An entrance I can partake

But never left and I can’t say

How long it’s been

Wasn’t lying when I said I was remorseful, yeah, yeah

Stuck in time like the boys up in the borstal, yeah, yeah

If you don’t wanna forgive me I won’t force you, yeah, yeah

Stuck in time like the boys up in the borstal, yeah

But would I lie to you really, would I lie to you?

Is this life just a pedal on a bicycle?

Push it 'round and 'round and 'round and 'round the bend

Stuck inside my ways, I can’t pretend

I wouldn’t lie to you really, would I lie to you?

Is this life just a pedal on a bicycle?

Push it 'round and 'round and 'round and 'round the bend

Time just holds its breath while I descend
