Saturday Song

Life Effect by Stars

sorry for wasting your time
five long months on the telephone line
hours of asking if you were fine
and saying i was fine too

sorry but i’ve got to go
the birth was quick but the death is slow
there was so much i didn’t know
and so much i never knew about you

and so we disconnect, the room grows quiet around us
it’s called the life effect, will it always surround us?

who made you happy last night?
i don’t know his name, but christ can he fight
as i fell, he told me you had a light
i light that shone inside you

i found myself a decent man now
i love him because i can
the bravest that i’ve ever been
was when i ran away from you

and so we disconnect, the room grows quiet around us
it’s called the life effect, will it always surround us?
and so we disconnect, the room grows quiet around us
nothing left to protect, the end has finally found us

the day is almost over, it’s almost time for bed. so now you’ve finally lost me, rest your weary head....
