Oh! What A Pity

The sadness of a city reflected in your eyes
Oh! what a pity but it’s no surprise
If you go to the sunny shores, your innocence is all
So bad at keeping messages but you didn’t call

You know, I know it’s no fun anymore
As they sail away you waved bye, bye
Awake me, awake me

The smile on your lips but it never reached your eyes
Oh what a pity but it’s no surprise
They took you from the city greys
For a little trip

You know, I know it’s no fun anymore
As they sail away you waved bye, bye
Awake me, awake me
You know, I know it’s no fun after all
As they take, you walked away a lifetime, a lifetime

Revenge is a dish that never fills the crowd
There’s a sense of madness fading in and out
The manic, the tragic the truly damaged
At the hands of another
Oh! What a pity
Oh! What a pity

So your story ends too soon
There wasn’t a dry eye
Oh! What a pity
Did we realise?
What we had when we had you, is that the big surprise?
Now you see it, now you don’t
Life, pain, release, disguised

You know, I know it’s no fun anymore
As they sail away you waved bye, bye
Awake me, awake me

Oh! What a pity
There’s a sense of madness fading in and out, in and out
The manic, the tragic, the truly damaged
Oh! What a pity
Oh! What a pity

Some losses only reveal themselves long after the moment has passed, while some wounds are inflicted so early that a lifetime is spent trying to survive them. Oh What a Pity is a poignant reflection on the people we lose, the lives that might have been and the invisible damage left behind.
