[Verse 1]
I saw in my mi
nd fairy light
s through the
mist
I kept calm an
d carried the
weight of the
rift
Pulled him in
tighter each t
ime he was dri
fting away
My spine split
from carrying
us up the hil
l
Wet through my
clothes, wear
y bones caught
the chill
I stopped tryi
ng to make him
laugh, stoppe
d trying to dr
ill the safe
Thinking how m
uch sad did yo
u think I had
, did you thin
k I had in me?
Oh, the trage
dy
[Chorus]
So long London
You'll find so
meone
[Verse 2]
I didn't opt i
n to be your o
dd man out
I founded the
club she's hea
rd great thing
s about
I left all I k
new, you left
me at the hous
e by the Heath
I stopped CPR,
after all it'
s no use
The spirit was
gone, we woul
d never come t
o
And I'm pissed
off you let m
e give you all
that youth fo
r free
[Chorus]
For so long, L
ondon
Stitches undon
e
Two graves, on
e gun
I'll find some
one
[Bridge]
And you say I
abandoned the
ship but I was
going down wi
th it
My white-knuck
le dying grip
holding tight
to your quiet
resentment
And my friends
said it isn't
right to be s
cared
Every day of a
love affair,
every breath f
eels like rare
st air
When you're no
t sure if he w
ants to be the
re
[Pre-Chorus]
So how much
sad did you t
hink I had, di
d you think I
had in me?
How much trage
dy?
Just how low d
id you think I
'd go 'fore I'
d self-implode
?
'Fore I'd hav
e to go be fre
e?
[Chorus]
You swore that
you loved me,
but where wer
e the clues?
I died on the
altar waiting
for the proof
You sacrificed
us to the god
s of your blue
st days
And I'm just g
etting color b
ack into my fa
ce
I'm just mad a
s hell 'cause
I loved this p
lace for
[Post-Chorus]
So long, Londo
n
Had a good run
A moment of wa
rm sun
But I'm not th
e one
So long, Londo
n
Stitches undon
e
Two graves, on
e gun
You'll find so
meone
