Thea Gilmore
Friendly Little Heart Attack
So for once I will not hide
My body was a fairground ride
He tried it
And bent the stars his way
The unrepentant ghost of night
Whispers to my weaker side
You need him
To take the dark away
Roll me over
Roll me over
A band plays on inside my chest
There's no comfort there's no rest
Will someone
Sing for me
I'm half-forgotten lines of songs
I'm something else that he got wrong
A secret
Too wild to keep
Roll me over
Roll me over
Approximation of a lovе
Misdirected homeward dovе
Roll me over
A brush to paint the white lies black
Friendly little heart attack
Roll me over
Here I go back to the start
A minor role, a walk on part
The girl that
Disappears
In between the dates and names
A player in a parlour game
He'd quietly
Been leaving for years
Roll Me over
Roll me over
A kind of backward vertigo
One worst case scenario
Roll me over
The dust upon the deck of cards
It may be truth, but is it art?
Roll me over
