Lovers - Lyrics by Effigy


Lyrics
I want to entertain you all, but the cameras overwhelm me
I've got stage fright
The whole town came out to see, a lonely boy
Set himself alight
Lovers, we could be lovers, but you don't like boys
And I don't like to beg
I can't describe this brilliance, colour overwhelm,
Eyes on overload
Dull scream, piercing words of love,
Another body dumped, on the endless road
Lovers, we could be lovers, but you don't like boys
And I don't like to beg
Lovers, we could be lovers, but you don't like boys
And I don't like to beg
I know you've given up on me
I know you've given up
I know you've given up on me
I know you've given up
Lovers, we could be lovers, but you don't like boys
And I don't like to beg
Lovers, we could be lovers, but you don't like boys
And I don't like to beg
But you don't like boys and I don't like to beg
