Heartache Lyrics by Stump (UK)

A Fierce Pancake

1988

Nothing grows in the shadow of heartache
House plants wilt, time grows old
Entropy is a lousy friend
When you're in from the cold and at your wits end
It's the leech, it's the landlord
Calling for the rent
Demanding the loot when you're already spent

When hunting a headline
Means walking the breadline
When you're strangled on a shoestring
Blisters aren't a new thing
You're hooked
On a fine line, wriggling

Nothing grows in the shadow of heartache
House plants wilt, timе grows old
Entropy is a lousy friend
When you're in from thе cold and at your wits end
It's the leech, it's the landlord
Calling for the rent
Demanding the loot when you're already spent

The weeping wound won't heal
Well that's the rub of the deal
So much for chemistry
You're just a depository
For a pile of old memories

Nothing grows in the shadow of heartache
House plants wilt, time grows old
Empathy is a lousy friend
When you're in from the cold and at your wits end
It's the leech, into the landlord
Calling for the rent
Demanding the loot when you're already spent
It's the leech, it's the landlord
Calling for your loot when you're already spent
