"Leaving Antwerp" lyrics

"Leaving Antwerp"

I'm leaving Antwerp riding on the train
With your ghost who's driving me insane
The uniform, the flag are on my mind
Well, it turns out, there's nothing on the line
I was destructive as much as I could be
Still I didn't read your heartbreak policy
To save me babe, I understood
That you were just way too good

Once I had a choice to become better
One I couldn't make
Before I walked away
Yeah, once I had a choice to become better
One I couldn't make
Before I walked away

I was a swine feeding on your pearls
And you were hopelessly romantic, girl
Are you pissed off the end was unrehearsed
Or are you mad you didn't find the exit first?
That was the time, that Saturday
I threw it all, all away

Once I had a choice to become better
One I couldn't make
Before I walked away
Yeah, once I had a choice to become better
One I couldn't make
Before I walked away

Alright
What kind of man leaves a sinking ship first?

'Cause love and hate, they're both doing great
Ever since we did part
'Cause right and wrong are both standing strong
Ever since I broke your heart

Once I had a choice to become better
One I couldn't make
Before I walked away
Yeah, once I had a choice to become better
One I couldn't make
Before I walked away

It's simple, girl, we gotta keep on moving
It's simple, girl, we gotta keep on moving
It's simple, girl, we gotta keep on moving
It's simple, girl, we gotta keep on moving
It's simple, girl, we gotta keep on moving
It's simple, girl, we gotta keep on moving
