The EU Song

I was riddled with guilt
It was a riddle to me
How our island had sunk
In the splintering sea
Yet the unchartered waters
They did not feel new
That summer I left you
And we left the EU
The earthquake
Ripped right through our youth
Heartbroken borders
Borderline truth
I followed the fault lines
With superglue
That summer I left you
And we left the EU
The bullet I shot
Was swallowed up whole
By the media storm
The historic the own-goal
And nobody thought
I’d see it through
That summer I left you
And we left the EU
We stood and stared
As all we’d built burnt down
Wildfire rumours
Spreading through town
But the blame came down
To point of view
That summer I left you
And we left the EU
My sense of direction
Was a lost cause
They found my moral compass
Washed up on distant shores
How the sun poured down
On the residue
That summer I left you
And we left the EU
