lyrics

Love
I was a hopeless heart
I was the tiniest light in an endless dark
Dilute to the billionth part
Till I met you

Honey
I was an open wound
I was an open noose that my head fit through
And I hoped that I’d need it to till I met you

Because her love was the only thing I ever understood
And hope didn't bring me the things that I hoped it would
Because she kicked me to the kerb

But then you said no
Just leave it to me
Forget your hurt, step away, just wait for me
I said my heart is a hellhole but leave that to me
If I save you from it
Will you save me from me?

Love
I felt old and weak
Drunk in the belly of the goddamn beast
At the bottom of the deepest deep till I met you



Honey
Was at the end of my road
I felt that I'd walked all my life just to lose control
Felt myself running for the nearest hole
Until I met you

Because her love was the only thing I ever understood
And hope didn't bring me the things that I hoped it would
Because she kicked me to the kerb

But then you said no
Just leave it to me
Forget your hurt, step away, just wait for me
I said my heart is a hellhole but leave that to me
If I save you from it
Will you save me from me?

Cos my body of work don’t lie
A surge of relief once their hurt subsides
And all the while I remember that
You’re all I have

Just leave it to me
I said my heart is a hellhole but leave that to me
If I save you from it
Will you save me from me?

about

Tellison London, UK

Tellison is a failed minor league indie rock band from London with acute organisational difficulties. They've released three albums and a bunch of singles.

Back in 2015 Tellison dusted off their guitars and referencing conventions, stepped up to take another swing at, if not the big time, at least the medium time and released "Hope Fading Nightly".

Things never quite go to plan.
