The Twilight Sad

So you just stepped out Of the front of my house And I'll never see you again I closed my eyes for a second And when they opened You weren't there And the door shut shut I was vacuum packed Shrink-wrapped out of air And the spine collapsed And the eyes rolled back To stare at my starving brain And fully clothed, I float away Down the Forth, into the sea I think I'll save suicide for another day And I picture this corpse On the M8 hearse And I have found a way to sleep On a rolled up coat Against the window With the strobe of the sun And the life I've led Am I ready to leap Is there peace beneath The roar of the Forth Road Bridge? On the northern side There's a Fife of mine And a boat in the port for me Fully clothed, I'll float away Down the Forth, into the sea I'll steer myself Through chopping waves As manic gulls Scream "It's okay" Take your life Give it a shake Gather up All your loose change I think I'll save suicide for another year I think I'll save suicide for another year I think I'll save suicide for another year I think I'll save suicide for another year I think I'll save suicide for another year I think I'll save suicide for another year I think I'll save suicide for another year (I think I'll save suicide for another year) Another year, another year, another year I think I'll save suicide for another year
