Saint Valentine

If i knew who i was
i might drown myself in liquor-filled buzz
for once you figured out the puzzle of me
saw beyond the blur of who i be
how could you stay?

A man once threw a pearl away
what if i threw a girl away?
would our love be confined to the shadows?
we swim like dolphins in the shallows
but once we drift to the deeper end
the facades wash away and i cant pretend
i cant pretend... deeper end...
the facades wash away and you're gone again

Girl, i tell you, if i knew
i'd drown myself in a bottle of glue
and find myself and stick to you
i'd drown myself where your heart once grew
for if you knew the truth of me
i'm afraid that truth would set you free
further and further into the sea
i'd drown myself so that you could be
and wash away cos i cant pretend
i'd wash away if you left again
i cant pretend... deeper end...
the facades wash away and you're gone again...
