Screen Memory

Once in a while
I recall those few strange days
In a seaside town
Your brutal features and heavy breast
So close in the bed
So cold to my touch

And the girl in the band
She's singing out of tune
You say she looks good
You're jealous of her

Once in a while
I recall those few strange days
In a seaside town
On a grey nightmarish journey by train
You look at my songs
You say I'm not well
I think I've never been that pale

You want someone to make you laugh
And I can't even see a reason to smile

On a grey nightmarish journey by train
You look at my songs
You say I'm not well
I think I've never been that pale

Still you pay more attention to your hair
Than to my troubles
