Joseph

Joseph was talking
Grooming a rumour he said
Somebody drowned the other day

That somebody was me
But I never drowned
I just simply slipped away

So if you need me, I'm sorry
'Cause I'm not around anymore
I'll never tell you what I'm thinking
You don't deserve to know

You came through
Stumbling hard, I knew
Mumbling words untrue
Only to undo

All the good
I had achieved, you would
Stampede all over it
Because you could

Joseph had captured
A bird without wings
Red and gold making shapes in the fire
His anger met silence

You won't find me crying
So don't you feel sorry for me
All that I have is in my head
And all that you took, you can have

You came through
Stumbling hard, I knew
Mumbling words untrue
Only to undo

All the good
I had achieved, you would
Stampede all over it
Because you could

You came through
Stumbling hard, I knew
Mumbling words untrue
Only to undo

All the good
I had achieved, you would
Stampede all over it
Because you could

You don't heal me like you used to
You don't heal me no more
I don't need you like I used to
You can't cure me like before
