Paint Dry

I would rather spend my time sitting here watching paint dry
Don't ask me for my thoughts cause I don't care anymore

First coat unappealing so patchy and thin
Try to fix it all up but it runs to the bin
The true colours start to show, paint peels away
Cracks leak like the lies that spill out each day
Some paints have no depth, but they managed to stay
And soon other colours, start to fade away
Wait for their time but it's running out quick
To put down in the paint book with one single tick

But as the figures add up and the mirror drips away
And there's no more time to play
I would rather spend my time sitting here watching paint dry
Don't ask me for my thoughts cause I don't care anymore
I would rather spend my time sitting here watching paint dry
Don't ask me for my thoughts cause I don't care anymore

5 colours at offer and one would be fine
But why not switch it up all the time
Mix and match depending on the day
The feeling don't matter, not regret just replay
Maybe purple is the one, put it on the wall
It don't matter the reason, even if it starts to fall
Dance around naked and tattoos on some
Then sit back on day and realise what has been done

But as the figures add up and the mirror drips away
And there's no more time to play
I would rather spend my time sitting here watching paint dry
Don't ask me for my thoughts cause I don't care anymore
I would rather spend my time sitting here watching paint dry
Don't ask me for my thoughts cause I don't care anymore
Watching paint dry
Watching paint dry
Watching paint dry
Watching paint dry

I would rather spend my time sitting here watching paint dry
Don't ask me for my thoughts cause I don't care anymore
I would rather spend my time sitting here watching paint dry
Don't ask me for my thoughts cause I don't care anymore
Watching paint dry
Watching paint dry
Watching paint dry
Watching paint dry
