Trust No One WIT'S END (EDIT)

The edited, single version of the first track on 'Violent Mood Swings'. The Fatima Mansions influenced 'Wit's End' is a tongue-in-cheek parody of Andrew's first, "tentative" (and mostly failed) steps into the dating game - and, in places, an ironic statement about people who claim to be happier on their own in life.

Lyrics
Cold and alone, that's the way I want to be
Some half-arsed statement on democracy
Set in my ways with no emotion to see
The respectable backside of society

A fatal floor in my main issue
- A floor that goes by the name of you
You seem to want me because you show no hate
I can live without you but there's no escape

My happiness could be a sentence away
If I can just think of the right words to say
Deep down inside I think I don't want to know
Just want to retreat and go and live in my hole

You do something to me that I can't quite comprehend
I try to forget you but you just come back again
Your voice goes right through me and it's driving me insane
But when you ignore me you drive me to my wit's end

Haunted by my past, tormented by my dreams
Safety is so far away, my life's not what it seems
You walk into my world to provide me with some hope
But I don't want to know, oh I don't want to know

My happiness could be a statement away
If I can just think of the right words to say
Deep down inside I think I don't want to know
Just want to retreat and go and live in my hole

Just want to be passive and not have to say a word
Don't want to force myself - so I am never heard
Don't want to be with you, don't want to hold you now
Don't want to change the world, I'm happy as I am

Cold and alone, cold and alone yeah
Cold and alone, that's the way I want to be
I don't want to know, I don't want to know
I don't want to know yeah, cold and alone
