Too Good For This World / paypal.me/aircrashdetectives
Pre Chorus
But I can’t fix you
From the outside
Looking In
And there is
Always trouble
Waiting in the wings
Chorus
Larger than life itself
Gave us
The gift
On the bridge
So not everything is broken
And now I am trying to help
His girl
Wipe away
The tears
Has some words to be spoken
Said he was
Too good for this world
Anyways
Verse 1
If you are
Full of the optimism
That comes from
Ignorance
You can’t fault the terrorist
For terrorism
Cos that’s what they do
If they get the chance
As the adults
Put themselves in prison
With some kind of wisdom
Claiming substance
That lacks the basics
Of humanity
In a very difficult
Set of circumstances
Verse 2
We all have faults
Show me someone
Who isn’t
Afraid of the dark
When nobody answers
The call from the front door
Painted in two shades
Of freakin’ crimson
Where the curtains
Are closed
The lights are down low
And floorboards have drifted apart
And if you are dying of cancer
Who do you care for?
Can you be the broken voice
Of reason
Verse 3
She wears a mask
To cover her beauty
Or the uglier side
Of her life
Are the scars and the bruises
Reserved for the battles
That go on
Inside his mind
And I hate to ask
But it is my duty
Is it any different
Than a little girl in Fife
Trying to dodge
The punches and excuses
From the bottom of the bottle
Empty way before the barman called time
