Song For You

Rejections a constant, bitterness comes with age
 Once or twice a lifetime you get days like today
 And I hope no one pissed on this milk crate
 I hope no pissed on this milk crate
 Where there's no tidying up
 And nothing falls and no one breaks
 You can't say I'm disgusting
 If you don't mean it that way
 And I hope no one comes down this laneway
 I hope no one comes down this laneway
 And I woke up before the sun in the arms of a tough girl
 Heard me speaking lately you've
 Heard me speaking about her and
 Last night I said, "I love you" without a hint of fear
 Last night I said, "I love you" nothing exploded, no one disappeared
 And the realisation shatters through me
 That I'm the villain in this movie
 But I've got no script and no direction
 I just want you to let me love you
 I just want you to let me love you
 I just wanted you to let me
 Dialogue is diluted by strangers and thin walls
 Little murmur runs through the audience
 The first time he calls
 You hang up and a sinking feeling falls amongst the crowd
 Someone whispers to their wife
 "My god, what's she doing now?"
 "My future never really mattered much at all,"
 I mutter to you down a telephone lying on the bathroom floor
 And last night I said, "I love you" without fear
 Last night I said, "I love you" and I disappeared
 And the realisation shatters through me
 That I'm the villain in this movie
 But I've got no script and no direction
 I just want you to let me love you
 I just want you to let me love you
 I just wanted you to let me
 And all I think I'd need to cast off insecurities
 Is for you to write something for me
 Like I write for you incessantly
 But I don't live in your mind the way that you do in mine
 And my feet stick to the floor of the shower
 But we get evicted in three-quarters of an hour
 And you rub paw-paw on a new tattoo and say, "One day there'll be a song about you."
 One day there'll be a song for you
 One day there'll be a song about you
 One day there'll be a song for you
 One day there'll be a song about you
 And I know that you hated me that time
 But I've made up for that now haven't I?
 Soaked in spotlights spitting vitriol without the corresponding kind
 One day there'll be a song for you
 One day there'll be a song about you
 One day there'll be a song for you
 One day there'll be a song about you
