"Sweet & Cynical" / "A Cold Dark Autumn." Double A sided single.


SWEET AND CYNICAL
Sweet and cynical
Nightmare and miracle
Heartbreak and mythical
Concrete and whimsical
Icy, wet Freezing sweat
What can I get
When you’re my pet?
After the curtain call
I thought I’d seen it all
But there was one more trick
At the end of her fingertips
The girl lies down in the pouring rain
She feels no pain
She hears the sweet refrain
From inside the bedroom she
Jumps through the window it
Stings like icicles it’s
Almost mystical she’s
Caught by tentacles she’s
In a spectacle of strange
And at the curtain call
Flowers fill the hall
Now I’ve seen everything
I still need one more fling Sweet and cynical
Cold and clinical
Barely visible
Mostly miserable
Open book
Have a look
I take a stand
She slaps my hand
