Lyrics She was woken by his bragging and his macho promises promises to please himself that this should therefore pleasure her “No more” she thought and tried to fake her sleep he tried to take her, make her fake her pleasure but she’d long forgotten why she had no idea why and she marvelled at his stamina at maintaining his belief she once more tried to sleep as the shower told her he was finished she faked sleep as he left then wearily she went to make her coffee and quiet, with a cigarette she listed her possessions quietly she packed she sat inside the car her thoughts floating, drifting neither angry nor afraid just drifting she flicked the cigarette away and climbed back up the stairs back to the comfort of the devil that she knew so well and he found her sitting softly in the corner, sitting quiet, and he didn’t stop to think she might be leaving. but she’d long forgotten why and she had no idea why and she marvelled at her stamina and stared at her life in disbelief He talked across her head around her body listening as his words bounced off the walls telling her the fortunes she inherited in him and quiet, with a cigarette she drifted in her mind his words a foreign language she sat inside herself her thoughts floating, drifting neither angry nor afraid just drifting I know her him so many just as they I read the novellettes I see it culminate upon the evening news and quiet, with a cigarette her life laid out like second-hand possessions she drifted in her mind she sat inside herself her thoughts floating, drifting neither angry nor afraid just drifting
