Polar Bear

All of the slippery standards of misery
Talk like they're status quo
But oh no, it ain’t so
You think it's the truth 'cos you heard
From your polar bear friends and your Romeos
Oh no, they don’t know

The world is a centre that nobody mentions
And after you enter...

I can't find a reason why I should be keeping
Your picture so close to me
When I don't really see you anymore
It's under my pillow, you know that there's still no
Response when I call your name
Oh no, you never come

There's never an answer
What are the chances
There's nobody there no more?
Out in a broken church
Leave me here all alone
Lit like a cigarette
Are you going to bring me back?
Lost in another world, out with another girl
Oh, I don't know

All of the fidgety words don’t deliver me
Nobody told me though
Oh no, I didn’t know
Is it a given we stretch to infinity
Out of each other's woes?
I don’t know
Stuck in the centre, that nobody mentioned
That nobody mentioned
