When  you come back again
 Would you bring  me something from the fridge?
 Heard a rumour  that the end is near
 but I just  got comfortable here.
Sigh.
Let's  be blunt.
 I'm a little  distracted.
What  do you want?
Headaches  and bad  faith
 are all  that I've got.
 First I misplaced  the ending
 then I lost  the plot.
Out  among the free-range sheep
 While the big  birds sharped their claws.
 For a time  we stuck with the shepherd
 but you wouldn't  play Santa Claus.
Sigh.
Let's  be blunt.
We're  a little distracted.
What  do you want?
Once  we could follow,
now  we cannot.
 You would not  fit our image,
 so we lost  the plot.
Once  we could hear  you,
 now our senses  are shot.
 We've forgotten  our first  love
 We have lost  the plot.
Lost  the plot.
 ?)
 (Basically just repeatedly: )
 (This next part may not be quite right, I just did it quickly)
When  I saw you for the first  time
 You were hanging with a thief
 And I knew my hands were dirty,
 and I dropped my gaze.
Then  you said I was forgiven
 and you welcomed me with laughter
 I was happy ever after
 I was counting the days
 when you'd come back again.
 We'll be waiting for you
When  you comin' again?
 We'll be ready for you
Maybe  we'll wake up when...
 Maybe we'll wake up when
you  come back again.
Lies.
Let's  be blunt.
 We're a little  unfaithful.
What  do you want?
Are  you still listening?
 'Cause we're obviously not.
 We've forgotten  our first  love.
 We have lost  the plot.
 And why  are you still calling?
 You forgave,  we forgot.
 We're such experts  at stalling
 that we've lost  the plot
lost  the plot... lost  the plot... lost  the plot.
When  you come back again
 Would you bring  me something from the fridge?
 Heard a rumour  that the end is near
 but I just  got comfortable here.
