I've never been as handy
As the boy who raised himself
If I had ever been as needy
I'd enjoy lengthways, top shelf

Against the odds he is constructive
While I move around in circles and celebrate
Unscarred and unproductive
More or less that's me as much as

The last time that we ever really
Talked it through
I felt weak, a fool, awestruck

But I'll never shine like that light
Or arrange my own rescue
I love him though he drinks too much

So you learn about the easy standard
When you wipe it from your window
Have you ever shown enough dissent
Have you controlled your ego

Make way for your misjudgement
Fail, succeed, go there and back again
I'm sure you feel fulfilment
You're not that brilliant you shouldn't
Waste your time on your own
Just talk it through
And you'll feel strong and hip, awestruck

But you'll never shine like that light
Or arrange your own rescue
I love him though he drinks
Like it's going out of fashion
But it never will
