Do you really look past
The colour of my skin
And try hard to see
Who I am within
I don’t believe you
"All my life's buried here, heap earth upon it"
Do you really look past
The colour of my skin
And try hard to see
Who I am within
I don’t believe you
Try as I may
It’s never enough
Nothing
Can replace your touch
Xxx
You’re lucky
I was out just then
And that I didn’t see
Your call
For if I had
I would’ve gone mad
And ended this
Once and for all
Who am I
To pass judgement
On whatever it is
You’ve done
As I can’t help but think
In the same situation
I might also
Have loaded that gun
You asked me
To run away with you
So, hesitantly, I did
And it was fun
Until you left
You fucking lying prick
I see you there
With your vacant stare
Drowning in infinite sadness
But never fear
I’ll alway be here
Trying to sweep away your madness
Now you’ve led me again
Onto the path of darkness
Who knows how this will end
Last time all that was left
Was sparseness
And we couldn’t even be friends
‘Whatever I do to make it real
It’s never enough…’
‘Hope my body gets better
Do I mean my body or my mind…’
Things should be better now
He said
They certainly shouldn’t be worse
I really hope so
She said
For I can’t live with this curse
Please
She said
Pay me no mind
And try not think of me unkind
For I am
She said
To madness inclined
And peace I can no longer find
They promised I’d feel better by now
That these pills would have kicked in
Well they fucking lied
As my brain is still fried
And my heart belongs in the bin
If I could
He said
I really would love
To lie with you forever, like this
Really
She said
I couldn’t be arsed
Now shift – I need a piss
I gave you everything I could
He said
Even if you don’t remember it
You gave me hell, heartbreak and hepatitis
She said
And your dope was shit
Presenter 1: ‘And the award for the biggest lie of them all goes to…’
(drum roll)
Presenters 1 & 2 in unison: ‘…I’m Fine!’
(applause)
Voiceover: ‘And collecting the award tonight are Honestly and I Promise, who both played a key role in supporting I’m Fine in the 2020 film ‘How Are You Today’
What the fuck
Are you still doing up
Don’t you know
It’s quarter past four?
Well of course I do
But it’s nothing new
To find I can’t sleep
Anymore
Does anybody know
What we are searching for?
Or where we’re supposed to look?
Because my motivation
Is fading
And it’s getting harder to give a fuck
Tell yourself you’re moving on
And they might just start
To believe it
But you and I know
This is all just for show
As you’re still drowning
In shit
Go on then pal
Unbutton your flies
Let's see what
You've got tonight
Does that bulge
In your jeans
Really mean
What I think it means
Will you actually have
Enough in there to please
Or are you just
A pretentious tease...
Do you believe in soulmates
He asked
As he lay back in the bed
No
She said, bluntly
Now can we just fuck instead
Thanks for that my dear
He said
Would you like a cigarette?
Are you fucking serious
She said
We haven’t finished yet!
So I guess now we just ignore each other
Pretend what we had never existed?
Well I suppose that’s better
Than letting things fester
And becoming all bitter and twisted
I didn’t think
I could fuck things up
Any more if I tried
But then I got drunk
And kissed you back
And now I want to die
‘If you walk out on me
I’m walking after you’
I play them too often nowadays
Just to feel the pain
It’s better then feeling nothing
Again and again and again…
You may as well keep the ring
He said
I’ve got no use for it
I’d rather keep my dignity
She said
Than this worthless piece of shit
Please stop sending me monthly timelines
Walking back and forth to the fridge doesn’t count
I didn’t ask for your opinion
In fact you’ve got a cheek
Now kindly piss off
You supercilious toff
Or I’ll knock you into next week
Some find it easier to deify
Rules bestowed from up high
And trust in his miraculous plan
But I feel it wiser
To be your own advisor
Than rely on the thoughts of a man
It was the best day
When we met
The worst when
You walked away
But what hurts the most
Is I was far too morose
For you to want to stay
There will be someone out there
He said
That will be the one for you
What if he’s already gone
She said
I don’t believe there can be two
