Whakanewha

Another forest metaphor You've heard a million before The trees know everything, I tried a wedding ring But you just cringed and said, "What for?" And now the whole thing's turned to ash You try to cover it with cash Another falling tree no one can hear but me Another suicidal mass Landing on my doorstep, thanks a ton Oh, darling, how can I repay you for what you have done? And then you lied to me at Whakanewha And you sealed it with a kiss I wanted to live with you, but, fuckin'-a, f*ck you No one on Earth could live like this Another clear-cut load of crap A few more corpses in the sack You'll get away with it, it's just the same old script This world is shaped to have your back You said, "I'm sorry," then you ran And went and did it all again I'm such a fool, I know Street smart but gullible I see the good in everything A pound of flax, a pound of steel I may be dumb, but I can feel I wonder when you'll realize what you had A frightened bird, a crystal ball So sad, you could've had it all But you hate yourself too much to want all that I had so much hope for your broken heart But you've made your choice, and you chose the dark And so I'll bury you at Whakanewha And have a party with my friends I'll miss you terribly, but, fuckin'-a, f*ck me It feels so good to love again And so I'll bury you at Whakanewha And have a party with my friends I'll miss you terribly, but, fuckin'-a, f*ck me It feels so good to love again
