Wild Guess Songtext
von Home Counties

What′s left, what's left?
I can′t afford a breath
I can't afford a single cigarette

So take a wild guess
I was thinking of trying on my own
Cut my cards and don't pick up the phone

Like a river full of dirt
I′m hurt as we burn
Like a petri-dish of mould
Enclosed, so cold

In what way do you suffer?
I′ve been trying, trying, trying, trying hard not to glamourise

I don't want to get old
Or die at home alone
Sitting there just staring at the phone


Like a river full of dirt (like a river, just like a river)
I′m hurt (like a river, just like a river)
As we burn (like an ember, just like an ember)
(Like an ember, just like an ember)
Like a petri-dish of mould (like a petri, just like a petri)
Enclosed (like a petri, just like a petri)
So cold (so cold, so cold, so cold, so cold, so cold, so cold)

The more you take the more they gain
The more it hurts the more it pains to say
We won't be alright with the house on fire

Lit it on purpose, pretended not to notice
Slash and grab through burnt prefab
It′s happening again

Like a river full of dirt (like a river, just like a river)
I'm hurt (like a river, just like a river)
As we burn (like an ember, just like an ember)
(Like an ember, just like an ember)
Like a petri-dish of mould (like a petri, just like a petri)
Enclosed (like a petri, just like a petri)
So cold (so cold, so cold, so cold, so cold, so cold, so cold)
Like a river full of dirt
I′m hurt
As we burn
Like a petri-dish of mould
Enclosed
So cold
