"Swallow, Smile" lyrics

I rise and curse the waking day
Curse the grime and curse the stains on the air
On the skin of the bed I'm tied within
Hiding from the twitch and crash
Of the mood, I hear you hatch
You're the mother growing cold
You're the bath now running old
I can feel the wall between us
Separate the filthy scene
As I push the door aside

Swallow, swallow, swallow, smile
Swallow, swallow, swallow, smile
Swallow

But it's alright, I lie
It's okay, I lie
It's so fine, I lie
It's alright, I
It's okay, here's another lie
It's so fine, here's another lie
It's so, woo, hmm-mmm-mmm-mmm

I wander 'round the gulf between us
Wonder how I came to feel
As fragile as a broken bone
As useless — I'm a broken bone
Come on, let's fight, let's feel alive
Come on, let's fight, let's feel alive
It's the only feeling I've kept towards you
That resembles any passion
Any tremble, any word
I'll take and turn it, twist and pissed-on
I'll return it, give me more
Give me, I'll

Swallow, swallow, swallow, smile
Swallow, swallow, swallow, smile
Swallow

But it's alright, I lie
It's okay, I lie
It's so fine, I
It's alright, I
It's okay, here's another lie
It's so fine, here's another lie
It's so, hmm-mmm-mmm-mmm

Well, our love was easy waiting
And everything was easy now
Our days were oh so numbered, ooh
But oh, baby, how I miss you
