Mew – “That Time on the Ledge” Lyrics

Sweetness, please try
The summer springs to mind, said I
Most of that night now escapes me, she replied

No, don’t let in
For years of curious fear derived
Every night
We’ll all set aside

A bomb adhered to memories

Sweetness, don’t cry
The hurtful ones were meant to die

No, don’t let in
For years of curious fear derived
Every night
We’ll all set aside

A fire rite you like to watch

No, don’t let in
For years of curious fear derived
Every night
We’ll all set aside

She said,
What if I said goodbye now?
What if I, not knowing why,
left you all behind on the ledge?
I replied,
that I knew now
I was glad I did not push you off
that time on the ledge

And I’m still glad
I did not push you off
that time on the ledge
