Novelty

Forest City queen

Best I’ve ever seen

Living in a nightmare working on a dream

You were talking shit

Like you always did

All your favourite records they’re all greatest hits

Well all you do is talk

No nothing’s ever said

You just scream the words that come into your head

Didn’t take too long

To see that we were wrong

The novelty is gone

You’ve got some pictures on your shelf

You took them of yourself

We’ve spent a lot of long nights drinking to your health

One night we got so drunk

I thought you were the one

I became the world spinning around your sun

Then the sun became the wind

The wind became the rain

Water rushing in, drowning in your name

Didn’t take too long

To see that we were wrong

The novelty is gone

Didn’t take too long

To see that we were wrong

The novelty is gone

Well maybe it’s all true

That line you like to use

You really only love something that you lose

Well can you call it love?

When push it comes to shove

We were never stuff that dreams are made up of

Cause all I was to you

Was something to abuse

Something you could fight

Something you could use

Didn’t take too long

To see that we were wrong

The novelty is gone

Didn’t take us long to see that we were wrong

The novelty is gone
