| You sat in the back with all of your bags packed | |
| A torn bit of paper from under the stairs | |
| And you're following your heart but the heart is an axe | |
| And it’s calling her number but she isn't there | |
| So it cuts through the air and it chalks up the losses | |
| And carves her initials into your right hand | |
| Cos truth is a trick it’s a tired dominatrix | |
| But truth’s not exactly what you had planned | |
| Now you're driving driving home | |
| And you're sure you're not alone. | |
| She lit you like christmas the day you first met her | |
| A red dress and champagne a spider of smoke | |
| And you know yeah you know that you should have known better | |
| But she pressed up against you and laughed at your jokes | |
| It'd sure been a while since you'd felt that it mattered | |
| Sweat and white skin and the smell of perfume | |
| One little touch your illusion was shattered | |
| You led her out to your car and you rented a room | |
| Now you're driving driving home | |
| And you're sure you're not alone. | |
| For a while the pretense was a welcome companion | |
| A colourful footnote in a black and white week | |
| And you swear yeah you swear that you did respect her | |
| But respect just showed up in blue marks on her cheek | |
| And she tried a few tricks but you knew how to find her | |
| And then she just left like smoke in a glass | |
| And there wasn't a trace save a newsprint reminder | |
| You'd say you'd been working if anyone asked | |
| Now you're driving driving home | |
| And you're sure you're not alone | |
| Now you're driving driving home | |
| And you'd swear you're not alone. |
| You sat in the back with all of your bags packed | |
| A torn bit of paper from under the stairs | |
| And you' re following your heart but the heart is an axe | |
| And it' s calling her number but she isn' t there | |
| So it cuts through the air and it chalks up the losses | |
| And carves her initials into your right hand | |
| Cos truth is a trick it' s a tired dominatrix | |
