Because You’re Lonely (The Circus) - The Venetia Fair

Oh, she’s gifted, she sucked the marrow from his bones*

But she got the worst of him

Oh, born cryptic, each word casts subtleties aside

Till they’re naked in the cold, alone

The telephone rings endlessly

And desperately she calls for him to come alone

Pick up the phone it’s 4:23 in the morning

Do you think she might just be drunk enough to care?

They came to his room just to suture the laceration

But the only lonely bone still broken stole their concentration

They said: for learning the end he’s aging elegantly, endlessly ashamed

She smiled her way through her timid introduction

And the way she made him wait would only aid in the seduction

She said: a kiss is a kiss despite the endless list of shit you can’t explain

And this is where we should have stayed, but how could I have known?

And then she fucked me then she told me that she loved me

And so I told her to shut her stupid mouth

And then I came too quickly cause I believe in love

But babe if this is it I’d rather sleep alone

You’re only doing this because you’re lonely

Baby, you’re only doing this because you’re lonely

But you don’t deserve me

She came to his home after cut communications

All alone the only soulless whore to wreak the celebration

She said: I couldn’t care less about the way he cares just take me where you can

His chest would collapse beneath a wave of realization

And the way he laid awake would barely shake her deep foundation

He said: a fuck is a fuck and you were in my house with him

Six years bitch, and you still play these fucking games?

And then you told me that you loved me

And so I told her to shut her stupid mouth

And then I came too quickly cause I believe in love

But babe if this is it I’d rather sleep alone

You’re only doing this because you’re lonely

Baby, you’re only doing this because you’re lonely

Oh, she’s gifted she sucked the marrow from my bones

Oh, you should have seen her, unclothed and unfulfilled alone

She’s begging, bring me to tears.

Watch what you say !

Her fingernails across my back, tearing me apart

And this is where we should have stayed.

By now I should have known

But then she fucked me then she told me that she loved me

And so I told her to shut her stupid mouth

And then I came too quickly cause I believe in love

But babe if this is it I’d rather sleep alone

You’re only doing this because you’re lonely

And then she fucked me then she told me that she loved me

And so I told her to shut her stupid mouth

And then I came too quickly cause I believe in love

But babe if this is it I’d rather sleep alone

You’re only doing this because you’re lonely, because you’re lonely

Cause I believe in love but babe if this is it I’d rather sleep alone

You’re only doing this because you’re such a fucking bitch

I swear that someday you’ll see you don’t deserve me

Listen close, bitch, keep your distance

Leave me the fuck alone !
