Goodbye Fairground by Paraquat
Goodbye Fairground lyrics
she said sharing a warm bed with a stranger
is better than sleeping alone.
because at least you�ve got a warm bed and someone who�s with you
and that�s better than being on your own.
well i�ve never been that stranger
and i�ll never understand
what she meant when she said it�s ok
to be the one who is gone
long before the sun rises
as long as the sleeping one pays.
i told her you don�t need to go,
you can stay for a while,
use my couch and i�ll sleep on the floor.
when you decide it�s time to move on
i�ll wish you the best
and give you the keys to my door.
and then she smiled at me
and i tried to smile back the same way
but i failed. i�m sure no one here smiles like she does.
and when she looked at me with angry eyes and said
why don�t you get up on your feet?
i told her
because i never fell down.
she said
all i ever wanted was a husband who cares
and maybe a flat i call mine
but all i ever got was this bed i have to share
and an asshole who calls me sometimes.
i consider you my friend
but friendship doesn�t seem to mean much nowadays.
still i want you to know that i�ll be there for you
and together we will find a way.
she said i�m confused like a rapist on a honeymoon.
with the young girl in his trunk and his wife in the hotel room.
how often can you say �yes� until nobody listens to �no� anymore?
i�m so fucking sick and i wanna go home.
