I would like to believe that it’s not necessary to intervene in what makes me uneasy on the street
You’d just get up and leave take a long walk
Wait ten seconds before you choose to talk
Father taught me that one
Eyes in the back of my head see regret
Fly on the wall observed but nothing said
Consequences never meant
Promise me at least you’ll try to see invasions of privacy
Bystanding’s feeling heavy now
Lift everything with your legs don’t throw your back out
Can you taste the bitterness of could’ve beens
Confrontations laid to rest again
Stop, please think
Don’t give the time of day to your instincts
Clear your head
A crowded mind can cause danger to spread
Bystanding’s feeling heavy now
Lift everything with your legs don’t throw your back out
Can you taste the bitterness of could’ve beens
Confrontations laid to rest again
Bystanding’s feeling heavy now
Lift everything with your legs don’t throw your back out
Can you taste the bitterness of could’ve beens
Confrontations laid to rest again

Slowly I walk down your block
Wait till you see the reason that drives me is that my heart it fucking hates me
Conceal your ring finger when you’re out for dinner
Just hide it away
Not to talk about sex feels like such neglect
Just ramble and play
But my body it fucking hates me
Your body like mine is frozen in time
Let’s thaw out now
Floating on a river is how I feel with ya
Then you pull me under
Tired past the point where sleep rests me
Limbs won't respond are you able to undress me
Interest unlikely you look bored at the sight of me
Self-sabotage engaged in which I might be

Able bodied and mindless
How frivolously is your time spent?
Reach out your fingers and find bliss
Take cosmetic appeal in your stride
Do you remember how it feels to be clean?
To leave your home without fear of being seen
Beautiful people in white dress
By who’s good grace do they find themselves blessed?
Conceal what you feel and you might let yourself forget everything for the night
It’s times like this you remember appreciation missed
A flawless kiss the taste has been erased from your lips
Cause a blemish rests inside the back of my skull
Wanting perfect design and optimal health
And I know a blemish decides whether you smile
I know a blemish decides
A blemish decides
On the mend you’re bouncing back again
Frequently impaired you still can’t retrieve your head from the edge
Don’t pretend worries are not relevant to you
They dictate all that you choose
Cause a blemish rests inside the back of my skull
Wanting perfect design and optimal health
And I know a blemish decides whether you smile
I know a blemish decides
A blemish decides

Black staircase twirls through loose leaves
Can’t leave my eye
Fence lines cut through dull grey tiles
I wonder why it is that I can’t resist the roadside hiss
Condolences to your bedside
Who lied - not I - about being two-timed
Anyone could’ve seen it wake and come alive
Hold me tight, close
Let go, you won’t though
Feeling lost in here but it’s all in my head
All in my head
All in my head
All in my head
I wonder what you see from that view through the trees
Terrified by the lives of those who live around me
Neighbour won’t you come out to the alley party?
Children play but it don’t feel right to me
It’s all in my head
All in my head
All in my head
All in my head

Don’t kick me out
I’ve fallen down for you
Head over heels for you
We can work around the hoops you’ve got me jumping through
Jumping for joy well overdue
Don’t want to be anywhere else
I love it how here I can’t escape myself
These days no matter how lonely I get a grin always finds its way to my lips
Kissed a love unrequited on that corner yeah I did
Now I can never leave my neighbourhood
Don’t drag me from my neighbourhood
Don’t want to be anywhere else
I love it how here I can’t escape myself
Don’t want to be anywhere else
I love it how here I can’t escape myself

Winter isn’t made better by being lovesick and not fickle
And I just can’t get you out of my head
And I swear that all you see is I’ve got issues
I’ve got serious issues
Did your mother never teach you to forget?
And it fucked up my afternoon when I saw you at the post office
Went into shock I barely felt conscious
Not used to the presence of angels
This independently spirited angel
You feel like a good book I only half read
Crossing lights don’t make me wait anymore
They think that I should be with who I adore
But I’m not getting anywhere quickly
Though we both found it funny
Did it put you off when I laughed during?
We can have some fun don’t wrinkle your forehead
Came to be so unassumingly like the sidewalk before me
Flowers left on doorsteps contemplated to melodramatically
Walking home in the snow
Street corners finding significance
Oh what I didn’t do back then
Winter isn’t made better by being lovesick and not fickle
And I just can’t get you out of my head

What to do
Gotta move or you will remain blue
Count sheep
Can’t make it to three before I fall asleep
Cause I like lying
I like to tell myself I don’t need you
Internal violence limits how outside influence concludes
How to easily maintain my cool around you?
Tomorrow you’ll see the rain can’t keep me from where I want to be
Cause I like lying
I like to tell myself I don’t need you
Internal violence limits how outside influence concludes

Hands Off

Passed out
Lights on
Tell me what’s wrong
Did you indulge?
Ache in your chest
Go figure how best to care a hell of a lot less
It takes so long to take it off this time of year
Hands off is no fun
It feels so wrong when you’re not near
And I think that I would’ve liked to know you then
Better than I did
Before your fears and worries came along and pulled you from my grip
Tone deaf
What’s left to sing to death with confidence
To do
What’s new you useless fool
Progress not yet
Complex interest that you neglect to follow through
Value gets placed in output rate it feels so cruel
And I think that I would’ve liked to know you then
Better than I did
Before your fears and worries came along and pulled you from my grip
I’d like to savour you
Through distance oh, I hope I cope
Though absence is strange
I’ll rearrange
And I think that I would’ve liked to know you then
Better than I did
Before your fears and worries came along and pulled you from my grip
