Treble Charger

Mercury Smile

It's been all the same
The wasted words
The way I'm feeling strange
Colours gone the way
Of empty rooms
And leaning over days

Letterbox in TV frame
I let you in, you'd do the same

And maybe I can laugh if off again

I love your mercury smile
It keeps me outta line
I try to simplify
The complicated kind
I got an alibi
If you're so inclined

Everything was beautiful
I don't know why it had to be this way

I recall the blame
The failing terms, the light revealing stain
Fabric starts to frey
With every line of thought begins decay

Letterbox in TV frame
No reaction to a claim
Credit photograph
It made me laugh so I can start again

Falling in disgrace, listen to the laughter
What a terrible waste. I can hardly wait.
