Ways to Phrase a Rejection - Drowners

I wish I’d known you had other plans for me

On those Thursday nights at Sweet Paradise I waited patiently

Oh I tried to save it all

I tried

But you were looking for ways to phrase a rejection

You’ve been answering back since the days

And the council flat

And now our kitchen table’s silent

I tried to save it all

I tried

But you were looking for ways to phrase a rejection

Oh now you’ve gone

Oh now you’ve gone

I was picturing the end

Before it fell apart

I tried to save it all

I tried

But you were looking for ways to phrase a rejection
