Concrete Statement Lyrics by David Thomas Broughton

Crippling Lack

2016

And I [?] I am waiting for some hard-boiled words
Spend a long time waiting for some hard-boiled words

Spend a long time waiting for some hard-boiled words
Some concrete statement
Such jellied, opaque promises will be nothing come the sun
Your tatty cloth remarks are never sewn into anything that I can wear

Tatty cloth remarks are never sewn into anything I can wear

Spend a long time waiting for some hard-boiled words
Some concrete statement
Such jellied, opaque promises will be nothing come the sun
Your tatty cloth remarks are never sewn into anything that I can wear

I can be relied upon to jump at other chances
I can be relied upon to jump at other chances
Just as you're relied upon to offer no advances

Shingle underfoot, the wind it bites on empty beaches
The salted spray pecks at your face and you screw up your features
The sun spits out of rolling grey and lights the sky on the horizon
I struggle with the concepts that you spread on our conversation
The sun spits out of rolling grey and lights the sea on the horizon
I struggle with the concepts that you spread on our conversation

I can be relied upon to jump at other chances
Just as you're relied upon to offer no advances

Ju—
Ju—
Ju—
Just as you're relied upon

I can be relied upon to
I can be relied upon to
And I can be relied upon
To jump at other chances
To jump at other chances
Just as you're relied

[Break]

I can be relied upon to jump at other chances
Just as you're relied upon to offer no advances
Shingle underfoot, the wind it bites on empty beaches
The salted spray pecks at your face and you screw up your features
The sun spits out of rolling grey and lights the sea on the horizon
I struggle with the concepts that you spread on our conversation

[?]

Now that you can hold
Now that you can hold

Now that you
