The Greenwich Affair

from Say Hello EP (fdm138) by Chris Anderson

/

lyrics

the cold, cracked lines of her face grew
in this pale room where i lie now
she only gave hindsight
though it was not her own
but rather torn from the front page
in bold, dark capitals
screaming, in words
as if it meant to catch me
she know it couldn't have
i never really cared for that sort of thing
but she continued on and on
so i had no choice but to listen
it's a shame i didn't hear
her eyes, a flood, like mine are now
but i never cried
i was too into myself
vain, just like everyone else
lost in my own eyes
and bouncing around the room
like some schoolchild
which i was
as she rambled, her words hurt my head
and they were tucked away
until it was too late

-September 1994
