Fontaines D.c. Bug Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Changed my name to "promise you", yeah
Dying inside 'cause I want you, yeah
Didn't I say I wanted to heal
Honey I'd changed before you, yeah
28 years are coming to end
The rain chased me down the gully again
Now I'm higher than anyone here
And dirt ain't nothing on me, yeah

[Interlude]
(But she's gone
But she's gone
But she's gone
But she's gone)
[Verse 2]
But-but-but baby I swear it, I wanted to call
But on my way around I happened to fall
She's a MUA at Carnegie Hall
In her vanity mirror, we're losing it all
Well, we shacked up swift abandonment way
Catchin' sweet rain inside a beret
In it I'm reflecting all of the day
And I will fade in the night, yeah

[Chorus]
Will you apologise
For the remainder of your life?
Do you accept the charges?
I promise you, I'll promise to, yeah

[Verse 3] Well, now she curls up with his favourite son
He's the ugliest man in heaven for one
As long as there's nobody fooling me there
Then dirt ain't nothing on me, yeah, yeah
They threw me out like I was a wedding bouquet
Now I can't quite remember what I had to say
Till I get higher than everyone here
And I will fade in the night, yeah
[Chorus]
In the charmless morning
I promise to be gone
I almost felt the feeling
That I wanted to, I wanted to, yeah
Ah, you thought I was here
But I'm further than the sun, son
Ah, silent as the feeling
That I've promised you, I promise you, yeah

[Outro]
Well, I changed my name to "promise you", yeah (But she's gone)
It's easier than making apologies, yeah (But she's gone)
Now I'm higher than anyone here (But she's gone)
And dirt ain't nothing on me, yeah (But she's gone)
