Lost Myself - Longpigs

She sold herself on the one love

The one that most of us live without

And dressed for the occasion day after day

Forgives herself when it don’t come

I have always found it

Easier to dream about it

Careful of the stitches

Insisted there was more than this

But I lost myself I cannot speak

To live by myself I’m far too weak

I have lost myself I cannot sleep

To live by myself I’m far too meek

Went bold as hell for the one love

The one that most of us read about

And caressed all the persuaders day after day

Relieves herself when it don’t come

By the things you’re saying

It’s easier to turn the blame in

Careful of the stitches

Insisted there was more than this

But I lost myself I cannot speak

To live by myself I’m far too weak

I have lost myself I cannot sleep

To live by myself I’m far too meek

She sold again on the one love

The one that all of them scream about

Dressed for the occasion day after day

For heart so warm that it’s burn she wants

I have always found it

Easier to skirt around it

Careful of the stitches

Insisted there was more than this

But I lost myself I cannot speak

To live by myself I’m far too weak

I have lost myself I cannot sleep

To live by myself I’m far too meek
