Postcode Lottery Songtext
von Wilful Missing

She arrived unannounced
All at once she′s in my house
Sat at my table and eating my food
She said, "Don't think twice
About rolling the dice
To decide upon what to do"

I don′t want you to go
We don't need each other now
But I felt the look that cut right through her lie

She aspired to defeat
Poison stuck on repeat
And taken slowly as remedies
To my surprise she dispensed
Reasons in her defence
To beat the post code lottery


I don't want you to go
We don′t need each other now
But I felt the look that shook me out of time

And the time it takes to mend our mistakes is short
Restless and weary and clearly not her ghost
But hopeless and stubbornly making the most

She fought right to the end
Hoping not to depend
On the mood of a bureaucrat
How come I can′t tell
If she's in heaven or in hell
And would welcome the final whistle

I don′t want you to go
We don't need each other now
But I read the book that made it seem alright

I don′t want you to go
I don't feel like I know
I′ll ask you once nicely and twice politely
And three times, four times, five times
Get out
