Pure O

Pure O

You had me hurting

You should know that

I was certain in my head

When you know, you know

I can’t change

God-damn the times I thought of nothing

but the things I couldn’t prove

So perfect in my devising

I load it all on you

and your lonely heart, under pressure

a petal in a book

I carry this around, for luck

Cos I’ve got something I can’t say

Pure O

You have me hurting

You should know that

I was certain in my head

When you know, you know

and that’s the main thing

You should know that

I was certain in my head

Protect me still my treasured secret

In ways misunderstood

She keeps me still with over-thinking

I’d love to hold you but

My hands were tied so the chance was wasted

the thousandth never took

I carry this around

Cos I’ve got something I cant say

Pure O, oh I have wasted

So many years just on the same trip

Late night favour

Yeah I was nervous

that she don’t know yet

if I was only part-time
