[Verse 1: Kyle Falconer]
I feel like a sun without a sky
Feel like a socket, without an eye
Feel like a house, but not a home
Just a dog without a bone

[Chorus]
How can you wink without an eye?
Like a grievance, but with no cry
A house, not a home, and I don't know why
Just a pig without a sty
The best lasts forever

[Verse 2]
Feel like a sail but I've been slashed
A vigilante that's been unmasked
Feel like a raft, but not a ship
Sinking on this south facing tip
I know that before when you answered the door
I told you the world to leave me
The best lasts forever, together again

[Verse 3]
Have you ever felt like a story untold?
A catwalk model that's growing old
Hard to imagine what's more important
The rainbow, the pot or the gold
I know that before when you answered the door
I told you the world to leave me
The best lasts forever, together again
[Verse 4]
Thinking about what it is that made you change
Was it the quarks, the dosh or the dames
When did I become so deranged?
Think of the time when blood ran through your veins
When she looked as sweet as a candy cane
As she looks through the window pane
Through the window pane and the rain
I said it again and again
The best lasts forever
I know that before when you answered the door
I told you the world to leave me

[Verse 5]
I've been on my knees on so many streets
Not just the ones in Dundee
Feel on my face, been a legless disgrace
Ten thousand laughing at me, but still
The best last forever
