Whale
Catatonia
Way Beyond Blue (1996)

You should know by now
that the common thread is taut
I'd like to stay
but you just won't listen

Disappointment I'd take
though there's no point to it
I blew it

If you could think aloud
it won't mean anything will change
As tests go wrong and we deny it together

Or a second of thought
might ache forever
I blew it
I blew it
I blew it

But did you ever go too far
up against your own persuasion
Consummate madness then despise

You should have learnt by now
that the common thread is taut
It's hard to reflect
when your world is sighing

You could never catch up
and there's no use trying
I blew it
I blew it
I blew it

And if the gods were on your side
I couldn't let you slide
(I blew it) (I blew it)
And if the gods were on your side
I couldn't let you slide
(I blew it) (I blew it)
You blow it
You blew it
I blew it (I blew it)
I blew it
