I started losing you about the time you told me everybody knew.
I fell under the strain and through the rear-view mirror watched you circle round the drain
I go back to all the places i know, i knock hard but no one's ever at home
Why does every brilliant color i'm shown want to bleed to grey?
And i can't hear you laughing anymore. i can't hear you laughing
I tried to find our flat but god would never ever let us have the keys to that
I tried to buy a house but the deal she offered me would mean you'd have to call me Faust
I go back to all the places i know, i knock hard but no one's ever at home
Why does every brilliant color i'm shown want to bleed to grey?
And i can't hear you laughing anymore
I can't hear you laughing
