𝄞 Crab's lair ꩜

One, two, three, four Chilled in the kitchen of a city tomb The light would flicker like a violent womb The night was thicker than a smoky fume Eliza waited in the room Ben, he loved her like he loved no one The way she laughed and held a smoking gun The way she always said, "What's done is done" And he was not the only one Love is a gentle thing Yours is thicker than a velvet ring Yours is thicker than a velvet ring A victim here with a sharp, sharp blade And Ben, he knew how she was getting paid Her water broke, and they would have to wait And when he knew that she was fooling He faced the mirror to avoid the thing We're out of money, and we've sold the bling And I just wanna take you home I just wanna take you home Love is a gentle thing Yours is thicker than a velvet ring Yours is thicker than a velvet ring And I am wandering, 'ring And I am wandering

For every treasure lost and found During my young days in the sun When all the children loved to run Fell so good when I was home For I was never left alone I had a Dad when I was down When I was sad I had a Mum For every long day in the heat And every one night out of sleep I have a memory to keep I met you someday on the street For every time I wasn't there And all the things I couldn't share For all the words friends wouldn't dare to sing I care

Verse 1] I want to meet him Can't wait to see him He looks like something that I'd see in a museum His thoughts are empty He's lookin' dirty And I could hurt him 'cause I know he wouldn't stop me But you don't need to feel so upset [Chorus] Don't talk to me and pretend you care He's not here, he's not there, he's not anywhere [Verse 2] I've got a notion There's no emotion He's just an auto-response to the commotion He's got no future He's just a loser There are no meds to pull his head out of this stupor You got his number He's like a sunburn He'll always itch you 'til you scratch, you never learn [Bridge] Don't forget that it's all in your head [Chorus] Don't look at me and pretend you care I'm not here, I'm not there, I'm not anywhere
