Doing Yourself In Songtext
von Braid

Whiskey and crosswords
Such a list of lost love
A twist of the tryst
Like an accidental trip
Frost-covered and faking the shakes
So white and she′s burning
She purrs, so pitched and deadly
The sweetest melody

At 23 she sees the future
Her dreams are dark
A hand ahead of the rest
We met the same way we left
We stayed hidden and unforgiven

Too young to know the difference between words whispered out of love
And words we could have screamed so easily

23 She sees the future
Her dreams are dark

At 23 she sees the future


A kiss and a whisper
With a hint of the danger
An instrumental part of the plan

She's got stars in her eyes for me and some other guys
She knows the business
She knows we′re in this
She loves so free
It's only an element
Just a small part of the plan
It's only an element
Just a small part of the plan

Lost love, you say
Lost love, you say
Lost love, you say
Lost love, you say

A kiss and a whisper
With a hint of the danger
An instrumental part of the plan


She′s got stars in her eyes for me and some other guys
She knows the business
She knows we′re in this
She loves so free
She knows the business
She knows we're in this
She loves so free
She knows the business
She knows we′re in this
She loves so free
