Lucid Shadowman - Solid Lyrics

Why would they bother when you leave them for years and expect them to pick you up just because you suddenly want something from them again?

Are they your flying monkeys from when you were fit? They've got lives and got loves since you were it

And you can't seduce them
From a thousand miles
And you can't get them drunk
With your feminine wiles
Cos you've lost that edge,
Girl you're on the ledge of
Needing to be someone solid
Underneath

You should have spent as much time on yourself as on your face
Or your hair or your nails with the money that you spent that he gave you

And I know I sound harsh, and that I'm coming at it wrong but I'm trying to help you understand why you've been alone for so long

Cos you can't seduce them
From a thousand miles
And you can't get them drunk
With your feminine wiles
Cos you've lost that edge,
Girl you're on the ledge of
Needing to be someone solid
Underneath

But I guess there'll always be
Someone in awe of you
Whether it's your perfect body
That you've so finely tuned
Or your vaguely witty banter
That you keep up your sleeve,
When you get them alone
With some pints and no
Room to breathe

But you can't seduce them
From a thousand miles
And you can't get them drunk
With your feminine wiles
Cos you've lost that edge,
Girl you're on the ledge of
Needing to be someone solid
Underneath
