Lighthouse

It transpires that while I was admiring you Everyone saw something else When they gave me their criticisms I should not have kept them to myself Give me a Lighthouse I'll show you a shipwreck All you were good for Was making me feel bad Let's smash our hearts against the rocks until we're bleeding And then let's stay there til the sea starts receding While you may have been just what I needed You're not what I'd ever want When the stormy pinkness approached I should not have been so nonchalant Give me a Lighthouse I'll show you a shipwreck All you were good for Was making me feel bad Let's smash our hearts against the rocks until we're bleeding And then let's stay there til the sea starts receding Maybe in a few years things could go right Wouldn't be goodbye, just good night We'd be older and wiser too But the oldness and the wiseness would remind me Of the things I hate about you Give me a Lighthouse I'll show you a shipwreck All you were good for Was making me feel bad Let's smash our hearts against the rocks until we're bleeding And then let's stay there til the sea starts receding
