Brighter Discontent Lyrics - Singles - The Submarines

Got a brand new roof above my head 

All the empty boxes thrown away 

I rearranged the place 

A hundred times today 

But the ordering of objects 

Couldn't hide what's missing 

All these things should make me happy 

Make me happy to be home again 

All these things should make me happy 

Make me happy to be alone again 

Got myself a bottle of red wine 

Got a night of nothing else to do 

I think I might know 

What I really want 

But is a brighter discontent 

The best that I could hope to find?

Got a big black television set 

Now I can watch just what I want 

But I'm here staring up 

At pictures on the wall 

And where are you, 

You're still stuck inside them all 

All these things should make me happy 

Make me happy to be home again 

All these things should make me happy 

Make me happy to be alone again 

But love is not these belongings 

That surround me 

Though there's meaning 

In the memories they hold 

A breaking heart in an empty apartment 

Was the loudest sound I never heard 

Photos 

Got a desk I'll write myself a note 

Pretending that it came from you 

On hotel stationary 

From the time we first met 

Whatever I can do cause 

I won't throw my hands up yet 

All these things should make me happy 

Make me happy to be home again 

All these things should make me happy 

Make me happy to be alone again 

But love is not these belongings 

That surround you 

Though there's meaning 

In the memories they hold 

A breaking heart in an empty apartment 

Was the loudest sound I never heard 

Well I'll be find if 

I dont look around me now 

Too much for what's gone 

If only I can wait here just a little while 

And let time pass in my room
