about

This is a remake of the song that appears on our previous release, Inferior Ghost.

lyrics

NOBODY GETS IT

Only a moment to paint a perfect picture,
Always an image of yourself.
Monochromatic just like your crazy poems,
I swallow them you spit them out.
Oh you turned away,
The only logic to this black arrangement.
Misrepresented, your hands they work too fast,
I'm counting doorways leading out.

I wanted perfect. Nobody's perfect, Baby. Nobody Gets it.
I needed perfect. Nobody's perfect, Baby. Nobody ever fits.

This isn't progress - crashing computer screens,
That's all that's left of you and me.
I gave you secrets - made you my confidante,
That's all you'll ever get from me.
Oh I loathe your taste.

I wanted perfect. Nobody's perfect, Baby. Nobody Gets it.
I needed perfect. Nobody's perfect, Baby. Nobody ever fits.
