firing blanks

assume i had a chance to clear things out alone

but ticks i used to know were laying under earth

my last surviving hope hade bidden me goodbye

how loud i ever made that noise

how much it ever hurt

do understand

i'm just firing blanks

for and hour every day

my mouth is overfilled

with better things to say that i threw in your face

forget that battered truth

i made it up myself

how hard it might have been

your defence was a waste

do understand

i'm just firing blanks

do understand

i'm just firing blanks
