Kittiwake - 1.5 Lyrics

We were golden once
But now the jumping point is right here
It is right in front of my nose
I should have seen it coming all along
I can't hold this place up
I can't take care of my self

I knew you'd see
Right through me
I'd forgotten all I've said I've done
And did away with it

Its over, she's spoken
And all of the splinters
Pieces she bit from her tongue
The shards have fractured off

A morsel, delicious
My baby, for dinner
She's just a dream forgotten
The crumbs are shaken away

She won't stay

The words have been hanging from my tongue
Their little points dig into the muscle
I fling them out of my mouth
I've known for months and months
I've sat on the knowledge
I tried to swallow them up, gone

I knew you'd see
Right through me
I'd forgotten all I've said I've done
And did away with it

I'm trying to soften all of the edges
But I'm lying to myself
