Inevitable
Two metres in between - yet so far
Once almost everything - I've been your star
Oh so - so heavenly bizarre
Is this - this who we really are
In my pockets only - only a few cents
It seems - seems like nothin's makin' any sense
I'm great - a great, dumb giraffe
I cannot help, but act on selfish behalf
Everyone, - around; and you might laugh
I am - am limited and only half
So what am I - I am in today
Oh yeah - yeah it's still all grey
I have - have really tried
No way - way to be denied
The moment you went... - went outside
Your promise broken - you have lied
So this - this is what you did decide
For no more comfort you'll provide
Alone to - to walk without my guide
All you left - left is emptiness inside
Once almost everything - I've been your star
Oh so - so heavenly bizarre
Is this - this who we really are
In my pockets only - only a few cents
It seems - seems like nothin's makin' any sense
I'm great - a great, dumb giraffe
I cannot help, but act on selfish behalf
Everyone, - around; and you might laugh
I am - am limited and only half
So what am I - I am in today
Oh yeah - yeah it's still all grey
I have - have really tried
No way - way to be denied
The moment you went... - went outside
Your promise broken - you have lied
So this - this is what you did decide
For no more comfort you'll provide
Alone to - to walk without my guide
All you left - left is emptiness inside
