Governed Songtext
von Baths

Charmer of the century
Flowed from landing to mezzanine
My genetic disparity
Is a prison of scenery

I′ll have had less friends in my bed than most gay men
I only ever live in ground-floor units or back houses
I make a great show of benevolence

I will die waiting
I will die governed
Some crucial move
I never discovered

I will be quiet
I will be othered
I will die waiting, oh
I will die governed

I make a great show of sincerity
I fuck without honesty
Actor, acting chronically
I fuck without honesty


I'll have had less friends in my bed than most gay men
I only ever live in ground-floor units or back houses
I make a great show of benevolence
And that′s it

I will die waiting
I will die governed
Some crucial move
I never discovered

I will be quiet
I will be othered
I will die waiting, oh
I will die governed

I will die waiting
I will die governed
Some crucial move
I never discovered

I will be quiet
I will be othered
I will die waiting, oh
I will die governed
