Deep Inside/It happened again

Summary:

I wanted to write more songs, and had a thought about what kinda song I could easily write that had less of a directly political bent. I guess this was the thing that fell out. Unlike the other stuff I've done, it seems a bit more Sinatra than Will Wood so I've marked it such. Again, link if you sing it etc. etc.

Work Text:

I’ve got heartache deep inside me,

Heartache deep I’m sure.

Every day it takes me back

to where I’ve been before.

 

Never going forward,

an endless gold refrain,

never seeking endings

only comfort from the pain.

 

I’ve got heartache deep inside me,

Ennui to my core.

Got me thinking all about

when things were so much more

 

Nostalgia is a bitter pill

for weaker men to swallow,

Heartbreak is a stronger drink

I’ll sip it for a while.

 

I’ve got heartache deep inside me,

an empty gnawing void,

An image of who I got to be

that keeps me all annoyed

It’s an image of a broken pattern

A new day that’s begun,

But now it’s still the nighttime

and my heartache’s just begun.
