Thoughtcrime Rachie

[Verse 1]
Somebody like yourself, true and kind
Would never understand this aching heart of mine
Cursing other people, yes, is what I do best, and so I
Write songs to pass the time
I’ve always dreamed of being on TV
To hear the audience lovingly praise me
For now, I guess I’ll make this knife sharp as can be

[Pre-Chorus]
Hear the crash of glass being pounded at
The tearing noise of a piece of paper torn to shreds
And thе setting sun after “goodbye” is said
Is just so lovеly…
Even that much is plain to see!

[Chorus]
The birds cry out their song in the sunset
The empty ache I feel starts to sing a swansong too
And yet, you linger still in the shadows
Standing on your toes, sky a flaming red hue
Slipping off my tongue, was my goodbye to you

[Verse 2]
I wanted to be seen, I want to love
Are these the “dreams” that people talk about?
Just another beggar begging for it to be
I’m lazy, hurry and satisfy me!
Somebody like yourself wouldn’t get
This ugly jealousy that simmers in my chest
Always looking for an opportunity to hit and to strike 'em back
