I cried to my baby on the telephone
I cried like the howling wind
She said she heard me cry
Coming from the shoreline
Tomorrow is just another day
I know I'll still feel this way
Cause I was the one who said "okay"
But nobody
Nobody knows that
I'm waiting for another world
Where deceit and lies just unfurl
Without the hurt
That I feel
The Overseer called my name
I fell into his arms ashamed
Before I realised
He made me a compromise
"You can wait here for another world"
"Where your deceitful lies just unfurl"
"Or take the pain"
"That you feel"
I took the back alley home
Cause something in my head went wrong
I lay there to die alone
For birds to pick my bones
