So Far Gone

Witness (UK)

Unfortunate wasn't it

could've been late

congratulations

could've taken a chance

unannounced

wrong step no dance

big deal I don't dance

should've let it be with the memories

really could have been better company

you get some don't you

with their dirty hands fuck up your records

living here doing what I do

let me tell you it bores me to sleep

somebody stole my credentials

all they left me was a hangover

you know we're only so far gone

I'm happy to go anywhere

just as long as I'm moving

the colours will be bright in your mind the way that I will describe

it would be as though you wish them

So kick the dust from your heels

Before you enter my place

There must be no outside influences in here

I advise my memory well

And I cant forget any detail

So don't go thinking no-one believes you

We don't weather well in the modern sun

And we'll burn in hell like everyone

But until then I'm at your beck and call

And my memory is selective

And I have an obese mind

And I can rival any exaggeration
