Nostalgia & Regret

from WEEK MATERIAL by bradlee z

/

about

A man toils without sleep to make a psycho-sexual thing for you. You pick it up and turn it over and put it down and cross your arms as a single drop of cream is expelled from every hole in your quivering body.

lyrics

When the winter thaws inside you
all the boughs that used to hide you
move away so light can find you
let the cold wind blow behind you
every season has a reason, heaven knows

Every diamond in the gutter
every window locked and shuttered
every heart you fail to flutter
every word you fail to utter
makes a library of nostalgia and regret

Wrote a library of nostalgia and regret
this is what I get
tried to write my way home
I know that you never really get what yer owed
that you'll never catch a kiss I don't blow
that you like a lighter load...
you can't always get it, though

Every coupon in the ghetto
every calmly drawn stiletto
every hill you couldn't pedal
every crack in yer falsetto
is a nightmare both recurring and severe

Time will ride you like a beater
she's a dirty rotten cheater
she's a lock and you can't pick it
she's a clock and you can't trick it
like a library of nostalgia and regret

Wrote a library of nostalgia and regret
this is what I get
tried to write my way home
I know... that you never really get what yer owed
that you'll never catch a kiss I don't blow
that you're never really rich 'til yer sold...
