Dead to Me - Nerina Pallot

I know that I should write

Of hope and all things nice

But I just find myself

Delirious with spite

Yeah I’m keeping score

What else is friendship for?

But a checklist of demeanors missed and

Slights

I try to forgive

But as long as I live

I’m marking it down

I know what you did, you’re

Dead to me

Dead to me

I cast you adrift

Yeah I’m setting you free, you’re

Dead to me

Dead to me

And I won’t be sending

Flowers

Coz you think loyalty

Is cold commodity

To be bought and sold and hoarded

Until the end

So busy collecting

Up all these unsuspecting fools like me

Who think they are your

Friend

And you know when you’re sick

What the remedy is, nurse

Hand me the scalpel

This won’t hurt a bit, you’re

Dead to me

Dead to me

I cast you adrift

Yeah I’m setting you free, you’re

Dead to me

You’re dead to me

Oh you’ll never be

No friend to me

You’re dead, dead to me

I’m gon' gon' set you free

I’m gon' gon' set you free

Set you free, set you free

You’re dead to me

You’re dead to me

So I won’t be sending

Flowers, you see

No, I don’t miss ya-ha-haa

You know that I don’t miss ya-ha-haa

Dead to me

Dead to me

I cast you adrift

Yeah I’m setting you free, you’re

Dead to me

You’re dead to me

Oh you’ll never be

No friend to me

You’re dead, dead to me

I’m gon' gon' set you free

I’m gon' gon' set you free

Set you free, set you free

You’re dead to me

You’re dead to me

And I won’t be sending

Flowers
