Une petite chanson, un peu à la manière de celle de Laraider dans la forme.
Il faut savoir que si la chanson monte en intensité jusqu'au dernier couplet, la phrase "You were never there" est quant à elle répétée sur le même ton monocorde tout le long afin de trancher avec le rythme destructuré (avis au puristes, c'est tout à fait volontaire).

Tous les jours à l'école,

You were never there.
Et puis on s'est aimés,
You were never there.
J'ai commencé à me piquer,

Et quand j'ai voulu en finir,
You were never there.
Parce que je n'avais plus d'avenir,
You were never there.
Alors je me suis mis à rire,
You were never there.
J'étais toujours capable du pire.
