(And this song is called)
(The world moves on)
The thermometer ran out of numbers
When it reached 50 degrees
I just lay down on the floor
With a bag of frozen peas
We saw of smoke rising
In the distance from our balcony
I a glass of wine
Sucked the juice out of a kiwi
Catherine on the TV
showed acres after acres
Of absolutely nothing
And Stevie called and said
Are you watching what I'm watching?
I said I'm what you're watching
But what is it I'm watching?
The night before I had been bored
And my legs had restless
It was my birthday
I'd already opened up my presents
At the social club, I met some friends
Who were this girl
One by one they dropped off
Till it was just me and her
We made out in every bar in town
While the state of Victoria
Burned down to the ground
And the sun over the city
The wind swept through the valley
And you don't get over a heart
You learn to carry it gracefully
The Edinburgh Gardens offered
Some kind of shade
I would up some beers
And head down late
Watch the possums and listen
To Growling banter
There was one I liked especially
I named her Sam as in Samantha
I offered a slice of apple my hand
She would sniff it, frown
And then lumber back to the trash can
I was going uphill on my Malvern Star
When I was passed by a scooter
You got a dollar or a cigarette?
Hey, I'm talking to you, poofter
What I should have said was nothing
What I said was "get lost"
Next time I'm upside-down with my bike in the dust
Spitting all the way home
Cursing the ground that I was chewing on
And the sun rose over the city
The swept through the valley
And you don't get over a heart
You just learn to carry it gracefully
And that's what it's like
When you've had your heart broken
The world shrugs its shoulders
And gets going
It just moves on in all its sadness and glory
Over dinner with a friend
I tell her my story
And as I finally put the book
Back on the shelf
She says
Maybe it's time you take a at yourself
No one's born an *******
It takes a lot of hard work
But God I've worked my ass off
To be a jerk
So many hands I've held
wondering why I felt nothing
And why, when I let go of that hand
I always start to feel something
And like a smashed against my head
She'd say
I wish you just would've cheated on me instead
And loving without loving
Is always the crime
I all the signs and signals
'Cause now I've been on both sides
The way you choose your words
The limpness of your hand
I almost died when you introduced me as a friend
How can you me a friend?
If you don't love me
Then please the dignity to tell me
But I never any of that
I just shook that hand
And looked down at the doormat
The sun rose over the city
The wind swept through the valley
And you don't get over a broken heart
You just learn to carry it gracefully
