[Verse 1]
I met a girl on runaway ground
Talked like she knew me with a welcoming sound
We said a lot and nothing at all
And time was dripping from the God on the wall

[Verse 2]
She found a room to be all by herself
Up seven storeys like a doll on a shelf
Counting the days down, one, two, three, four
Nobody's looking 'cept the God on the wall

[Pre-Chorus]
And he'll let you go
Oh, and he'll let you down

[Chorus]
So it's alright if you don't want a shoulder
If you don't wanna get over it all
And it's alright if you don't wanna remember
That nothing's forever after all

[Verse 3]
Hear "Roll On Babe" from '74
When the wheel won't turn, you won't turn anymore
You'll do a lot and nothing at all
Read what I've written to your God on the wall
[Pre-Chorus]
And he'll let you go
Oh, and he'll let you down

[Chorus]
So it's alright if you don't want a shoulder
If you don't wanna get over it all
And it's alright if you don't wanna remember
That nothing's forever after all

[Bridge]
When you're unsettled
Find your breathing castle
Double lives extricably tied

[Outro]
So it's alright, I can be a shoulder
I can be a way out of it all
And it's alright if you wanna remember
That nothing's forever after all
