I Lay Graceless


I should\'ve laughed 
I should\'ve cried
Should\'ve considered 
Taking her side

I should\'ve bowed
I should\'ve lied
Should\'ve tasted
A swallowed pride

For all the irony
And Saint Helier
This lamp shade
Is all that remains 

For all the sarcasm
And sugar cane
Now our forts
Reduced to remains

Here I lay
In a state of pain
I lay graceless 
since she went away
I guess my loss
Is the worlds to gain
As I lay graceless
Here I lay. 


I\'ll never speak
I\'ll never tell
I\'ll never leave 
Dantes carousel 

I\'ll never dance
I\'ll never sell
I\'ll never seek
To break the spell

For all the side eye 
And creme brulee 
This bottle opener 
Is all that remains

For all the put downs
And St tropez 
Our empire
Reduced to remains

Here I lay
In a state of pain
I lay graceless 
since she went away
I guess my loss
Is the worlds to gain
As I lay graceless
Here I lay.
