Deer Heart

I found out not so long ago
you’ve got nothing in your eyes
and I wouldn’t be surprised
if you’d lost everything
before you even met me
there’s nothing in your eyes
despite what you want to tell me

I wore this coat - oh, so long ago
and I haven’t checked the pockets
in two years, six months three days and so
I opened up the buttons
what mysteries they contained
in amongst the dust and fivers
was a note from you and it said...

I wore this face - oh, so long ago
and I might have lived the lines
and it might have been a different life
but you can’t tell me
that we’re not the same
I’m still your fucking waster
and you haven’t even aged

Deer Heart
I swear I won’t forget you
wish to God I’d never met you
