Governed lyrics

Charmer of the century
Float from landing to mezzanine
My genetic disparity
Is a prison of scenery

I'll have had less friends in my bed than most gay men
I'll only ever live in ground floor units or back houses
I make a great show of benevolence

I will die waiting
I will die governed
Some crucial move
I never discovered
I will be quiet
I will be othered
I will die waiting
I will die governed

I make a great show of sincerity
I f*ck without honesty
Actor acting chronically
I f*ck without honesty

I'll have had less friends in my bed than most gay men
I'll only ever live in ground floor units or back houses
I make a great show of benevolence
And that's it

I will die waiting
I will die governed
Some crucial move
I never discovered
I will be quiet
I will be othered
I will die waiting
I will die governed

I will die waiting
I will die governed
Some crucial move
I never discovered

I will be quiet
I will be othered
I will die waiting
I will die governed
