Paul Smith - The Crush And The Shatter lyrics

It's dull and sustained But you never asked It was all in the note Delivered by hand I saw your scarf into the letterbox Monologue times two equals conversation People explain but it does no good I broke my own heart by waiting too long The crush and the shatter As our lives scatter If I didn't see it then it didn't happen The land plateaus And industry grows Filtered light contracts In the glittering towers The clogs you get the less you've impressed In a room full of strangers I withdraw Contact in vain but it does no good I would've explained but you've long gone The crush and the shatter As our lives scatter If I didn't see it then it didn't happen
