LYRICS GAME

What do they know about violence

Shut inside four marriages

Where whoever loves pays and whoever doesn't love rethinks it

What do they know about the Sphinx

Seen at eight years old with you

You laughed, you laughed but they told me

That sometimes laughing is like faking it

You'd play your Arabic songs in the car and

You sang off-key and then told me old fables

You ran in the desert with your Invicta backpack but

Running's useless if beyond money you've got no breath or happiness left

There's something I don't get

Like diving into the Red Sea

I forgot it way too soon

But I still remember when you told me 'I'm staying'

Lost in a messed-up life

If you think about it I made it worse

You kept repeating the same phone call

Damn this burnt-out youth of yours

What do they know about departures

If goodbyes were in fashion

Maybe you'd be number one in trends

I played Nintendo and Pokémon in the car and

You complained when I didn't wanna talk anymore

You opened the window to flick the ash out

Smiling won't hide the sh*t I already know

There's something I don't get

Like diving into the Red Sea

I forgot it way too soon

But I still remember when you told me 'I'm staying'

Lost in a messed-up life

If you think about it I made it worse

You kept repeating the same phone call

Damn this burnt-out youth of yours
