About the song
In between romantic entangments, and avoiding them by forcible act of will, I was one day out riding aroudn on my motorbike, and found myself riding past the appt complex where the subject of "Romantic Entanglement Bullshit", this of course, kicked over teh emo-trashcan, and what follows spilled out.
Oh, and I played harmonica too.
Oh, and I played harmonica too.
Lyrics
Just Happened to be passing by
That's my story, I'll stick to it
so what if I'd ridden by
those days start with an "F"
end with a "ran"
Hope Springs Eternal
Chance fallen, and she called me back
Stupid me left my number
Enthused that each week holds a follow up event
Chained to that desk
With a blanket smile
Hope Springs Eternal
Ends up infernal
Somehow I already knew this
And it don't make me feel any smarter
Wise in the ways of the foolish
and crowned the King of the Martyrs
For Love
B;link once collect the surprise
She said "Maybe some evening..."
she could tag along
(not like a real date or anything, y'know)
Only serves to lift the lid off
My trashcan of emotion
Where stoiicism weds stupidity
And I'm crowned the king of the martyrs
For Love
Crowned the king of the martyrs
For Love
Crowned the king of the martyrs
That's my story, I'll stick to it
so what if I'd ridden by
those days start with an "F"
end with a "ran"
Hope Springs Eternal
Chance fallen, and she called me back
Stupid me left my number
Enthused that each week holds a follow up event
Chained to that desk
With a blanket smile
Hope Springs Eternal
Ends up infernal
Somehow I already knew this
And it don't make me feel any smarter
Wise in the ways of the foolish
and crowned the King of the Martyrs
For Love
B;link once collect the surprise
She said "Maybe some evening..."
she could tag along
(not like a real date or anything, y'know)
Only serves to lift the lid off
My trashcan of emotion
Where stoiicism weds stupidity
And I'm crowned the king of the martyrs
For Love
Crowned the king of the martyrs
For Love
Crowned the king of the martyrs
