We're on a promontory
High above the sea
Reminisce with me
Think back on how we came to be
Like this, so amorphous
We're so shapeless and unformed
We're gonna waste away into nothing, baby.
You know that you're the queen
The monarch, you're supreme
Infallible, you can do no wrong
So why you stringing me along
I try to tell you this, but like a plagiarist
You steal my words away
And I forget what I had to say
And I've been ravenous and rapacious too
I hunger for you, yes I do
Indelible, I can't be removed
No matter what you put me through
I just can't compete when it comes to you
Our total love's a meager sum
A paucity, it's next to none
Don't repudiate me, don't discard me
Your neglect has really marred me
It's damaged me, done harm to me
We've got to turn ourselves around
Got to work our way back to solid ground
And I've been ravenous and rapacious too
I hunger for you, yes I do
Indelible, I can't be removed
No matter what you put me through
I just can't compete when it comes to you
Yeah, I'm just some kind of fool when it comes to you
Our love was comprehensive when we started
It was all-inclusive
Now it seems to me that we've plateaued
There's no growth
Have I worn out my utility
I'm not useful anymore
Now it's all sobriety
But we were never this serious before
On a promontory
High above the sea
Don't you push me
We can reconcile and be
Together again, best of friends
This rivalry is through
I just can't compete when it comes to you.
And I've been ravenous and rapacious too
I hunger for you, yes I do
Indelible, I can't be removed
No matter what you put me through
I just can't compete when it comes to you.
Yeah, I'm just some kind of fool when it comes to you
Yeah, yeah, I don't know what I'm gonna do when it comes to you
We're on a promontory
