Separate And Ever Deadly

When we walked the streets together
 All the faces seemed to smile back
 And now the pavements have nothing to offer
 And all the faces seem to need a slap
 There's an unfamiliar grip
 On an unfamiliar handkerchief
 Attending to the tears on cheeks I wouldn't notice with you
 No matter how vicious the grief
 Her expression was damp and crooked
 Grabs onto my throat and won't let go
 Won't let go
 Won't let go
 Won't let go
 Save me from
 The secateurs
 I'll pretend
 I didn't hear
 Can't you see I'm the ghost in the wrong coat?
 Biting butter and crumbs
 ♪
 There's a handsome maverick
 You don't talk about to keep me calm
 And I can't help it if I create a version
 That pulls you back onto his arm
 Please don't tell me
 You don't have to darling, I can sense
 That he painted you a gushing sunset
 And slayed angry panthers in your defence
 And he stands separate and ever deadly
 Clings onto my throat and won't let go
 Won't let go
 Won't let go
 Won't let go
 Save me from
 The secateurs
 I'll pretend
 I didn't hear
 Can't you see I'm a ghost in the wrong coat?
