Bright Neon Fencing - Parting Gifts

Apr 2023

I published “Parting Gifts”, as always you can listen to it on YouTube:

I don’t know if I could
Be the one for you
I’d cross the ocean with you
Yet I am scared of forests
They are always so dark
But I’m a city boy
I need the lights at night
To feel I’m in control

I don’t know if I could
Be the one for you
Yet I could never leave you
Standing there alone
Oh, it’s a real pity
That our kisses don’t match
The expectations we set
Back when we swiped right

Leave me standing in the rain
And I will never love again
Is what you tell me smiling
As we’re waiting for the trains
That will end this night for us,
tearing us apart
Back to our distinct sides of town.

There’s hardly any meaning
Left in meeting new ones
It always ends up hurting
Yet I still keep wishing
To find someone who matches
Not only on the screen
A fucking connection
With no network link between

You and I we both know
This isn’t a game
Yet we’re following the rules
The platform has designed
For us to stay a little desperate
To finally find the one
We’ll be happy with for life
and delete this shitty app for

Leave me standing in the rain
And I will never love again
Is what you tell me smiling
As we’re waiting for the trains
That will end this night for us,
tearing us apart
Back to our distinct sides of town.
