Gruff Rhys – Vitamin K lyrics

I wrote this song to save myself
And now I sing it because I'm saved
Because she said goodbye
So long it's time to die
Sitting in limbo in a limousine
She was betrayed by ideas
Homemade skirt
And died [sic] black hair
So long, oh! Ages ago
Hey Vitamin K
Do you even remember my name?
As fragments of the past come tumbling sharply now into focus
Like a big red typhoon
And gallons and litres of shame
Waterfall from heights unknown in the universe
What matters is what happened to you my love
For you my love
Estuary English was her second tongue
She climbed a rung in the ladder
Bladder bursting overflow
Long time ... in the eighties or so
There she stumbles crying insane
She was swayed by the money
Tummy full of tumbleweeds
Nose bleeding into the reeds
Hey Vitamin K
Do you even remember my name?
As fragments of the past come tumbling sharply now into focus
Like a big red typhoon
And gallons and litres of shame
Waterfall from heights unknown in the universe
What matters is what happened to you my love
For you my love
I wrote this song to save myself
And now I sing it because I'm saved
Because she said goodbye
So long it's time to die
