C'est Tragique!

He sank half the bottle for breakfast
Neglecting his lukewarm cup of tea
Excused himself from the office
Blaming issues with his sickly family
He said it ain’t easy
It ain’t easy being me
He said it ain’t easy
It ain’t easy being me
She awoke as the sun, it was setting
Head pounding with familiarity
The stranger’s warmth, she found fleeting
Her jaw, it was aching terribly
She said it ain’t easy
It ain’t easy being me
She said it ain’t easy
It ain’t easy being me
They passed the bag between them
Making the best use of their keys
Before the polythene was empty
They both asked for a promise to keep
Please make it easy
Can you make it easier for me?
Please make it easy
Can you make it easier for me?
Cos’ I can’t take no more
My eyes are red and raw
But I can see that we’re in too deep...
C’est Tragique!
One day, I won’t suffer
One day, I’ll be free
I hate to act the victim
But I play the role so gloriously
‘Cos it ain’t easy
It ain’t easy being me
It ain’t easy
It ain’t easy being me

Drawn in by your smile
I’ll stay here for a while
Swimming in your eyes
Is where I'll drown tonight
Breathe. Just breathe.
I’m on my knees
Breathe. Just breathe.
I beg and plead
Parted mile by mile
In this godless isle
Soon we’ll reconcile
It’s been quite a while
Breathe. Just breathe.
I’m on my knees
Breathe. Just breathe.
I beg and plead
If you need me, you can find me in your heart and mind
If you lose me, you can find me in your heart and mind
Breathe. Just breathe.
I’m on my knees
Breathe. Just breathe.
I beg and plead
When you need me, you will find me in your heart and mind

Not a Cloud

Colder winds are sweeping in
And I'll keep you warm for a while
But I’m human too
And I break like you
And my bones they chill to ice
No amount of wine can make this fine
And whisky, it numbs the pain
But a sober mind
Can see it’s time
For us to part again
The rains arrive, and still we strive
To keep the dream alive
Though it’s not goodbye
As my wings take flight
You'll be always on my mind
Different stations of rationalities
Through every season, you’ll always be with me
The sun will rise and I’ll realise
The beauty in your eyes
We’ll meet once more
'cross that wind-swept shore
With not a cloud in all the sky
Yes, we'll meet once more
And kiss like never before
With not a cloud in all the sky
