"Synchronised Sinking" - The Lucksmiths

You don't need to ask me twice
I'm not averse to giving advice
On a barstool basis
Four o'clock sounds fine to me
I'll meet you at the library
There's privacy in public places
Oh, but, reader, heal thyself
Put the book back on the shelf.

Something's obviously wrong
Your face is all day long
It was lovely when you laughed
Come on- please get it off your chest
It's a commonplace but I'd suggest
A problem shared is a problem halved
Kick a stone across the road
Explain, or you'll explode.

Here we are
Silhouetted in the smoke
From shipwrecks at the bar
Of the Anchor and Hope
And I haven't seen you smile in quite a while.

Why don't you let go of your boy and see
You've lost none of your bouyancy?
So sober-sided
Overboard and undecided
Have you come to the conclusion
That you've come to the conclusion?
Have you come to the conclusion
That you've come to the conclusion?

You're unsure
But at least you're thinking
This looks more and more
Like synchronised sinking
And I haven't seen your smile in quite a while
And I haven't seen you anywhere in ages
Knowing how you must be hating this
Going down with the relationship.

Note: The music to this is actually quite cheerful - despite the words, it's not really that sad a song. More a wake up call. ;)

Gold, gold, gold!

*chuckles* I'd forgotten to mention this, but it was on the news again. Yesterday an Aussie speed skater won our first ever Winter Olympic gold medal. And in true Aussie fashion, it was more arse than class. All the other competetors had fallen while he was hanging safely in the back, and simply skated past to take the gold.

*snickers* You can just see the expression on his face saying: "What the fuck?"
