No Consolation

Salutations from a southern town

I've got tales from the dark side in me down

And in the back of my head there's a three act play

But i don't mind what the voices say

You were, you were

Everything you said you'd never be

I make good time

To a place all mine

I was lucky i remembered

But that's no consolation

It's no consolation

And now the earth is angry and the sky is blue

And there's so much more i want to blame on you

Like how you can't go the distance in a foreign car

And what you wish was for real will take you only so far

Don't speak freely

You might have to hear what you're saying

I can do my time

In a place all mine

Where it's lovely to remember

But that's no consolation

It's no consolation

No consolation

It's no consolation
