lyrics

Drunk at the inception.
It’s my destiny.
So much despair for
those I don’t really care for,
seemingly.

Broke my engagement,
drunk at the airport.
Drunk in the cockpit.
you’d all better watch it,
therefore.

And all I see is your face
for miles around, miles around.
All I see is your face
for miles around, miles around.

Despair oh despair, oh yeah.
Don’t make me lose,
don’t be rude,
don’t make me lose it.
I thought I’d learned a few things
about rising above,
before you doubted me
and I reviewed it.

But one thing about the life and times of me and you:
life never gave us time to have a clue.
And one thing we would’ve never assumed
is that the sky is never clear, it’s always blue.

And all I see is your face
for miles around, miles around.
All I see is your face
for miles around, miles around.

Can’t fall asleep anymore,
without falling in the steep gorge of your amour.
Gulping as I sink into the wide gulf
of your loving like I never loved before.
Like I’m on tour.

And all I see is your face
for miles around, miles around.
All I see is your face
for miles around, miles around.

Drunk at the inception.
It’s my destiny.
So much despair for
those I don’t really care for,
seemingly.
