Airport Hotel Lyrics by Louis Brennan

Dead Capital

2018

[Verse 1]
On the bed at the airport hotel
You were curled up like a question mark
I buttoned my collar
My tie-like noose
As you emptied out the mini bar
And I could still taste you on my tongue
Your body hard and young
On the train into town
I mouth the words repeatedly
If you knew just what you mean to me
[Chorus]
I could be better than this
Denial on denial 'til no integrity exists
That silent resignation with the words right on my lips
And the feeling, maybe baby, this is all that there is
I could be better than this
[Verse 2]
Well, I dream about crashing on the long drive home
Pull over in the lay-by, change the sim card in my phone
But there's nothing left to say
Just the sound of your voice
Oh you [?] say you'll [?] never leave her
Like as if I had a choice
Oh but these words are poisoned arrows
And I am paralysed by fear
And it gets harder every day
Every night that you're not here
Well I see them talk behind my back
Pretend that I can't hear
About the greedy young queen
And the dirty old queer
[Chorus 2]
I could be better than this
The promise of suburbia
The widening abyss
When I'm laying in the bathtub with the razor to my wrist
And a list of explanations she's gonna give to my kids
I could be better than this
[Verse 1]
On the bed at the airport hotel
You were curled up like a question mark
I buttoned my collar
My tie-like noose
As you emptied out the mini bar
And I could still taste you on my tongue
Your body hard and young
On the train into town
I mouth the words repeatedly
If you knew just what you mean to me
I could be better than this
