Everything was black & white.
Except for gold & it was right.
Weighed down, killed me, it's what you wanted when you came around.
And i'm, drowning...
I did all I could for you.
You paid me back in I owe you's.
Chorus
No love lost when you went.
No love for me to begin with.
Chorus
I couldn't breath, you took it all away from me.
Nothing was mine, unless it came for free.
That wasn't you, every penny came to be.
Another way, of keeping you with me.
Drowning, in a sea of promise rings.
Hoping, that things weren't all you'd see in me.
I'm nothing more than a way to get you what you want.
Drowning, under the weight you put on me.
My minutes, became someone elses hours.
I traded, my life to give you what you want.
Still, away, exactly where you went.
A broken man, threadbare and bent.
Fans of Polvo, take note! The excellent Kansas City band Abandoncy has the same fondness for corkscrewing riffs & melodies. It’s great! Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 28, 2022
