Belavista Man - One And A Half Months

[D]Was I just an excuse to forget?
Or [F#m]was I just a tool?
[Bm]Am I just the face of regret?
Now (that) you [Em]played me for a [G]fool?
I m[D]ight be gullible or easy to tempt,
But I [F#m]still have my pride at hand.
I l[Bm]ost everything that made me content
But [Em]now I under[G]stand;

“All that anyone really wants,
Is something to believe.”
For me, it was you and now you haunt
Every stupid nightmare and dream.
I lost that faith that I kept for so long,
And have shunned this bad religion.
These thoughts on my mind, now in a song,
Have broken my fear of deception.

And so I admit defeat, for once,
And run back my own self loathing,
I’ve taken the pain and all at once
The pain I feel, is nothing.

(Instrumental)

So, thanks for the memories and all that shit,
It was a time I’ll never forget.
But when I’m wide awake, my lamp still lit,
I wish I could forget

(Because) there’s no such thing as a world of “love”
It’s all just a global con.
The thing that drives us all, my love,
Is lust and I’m addicted, hun.
