Hijacked Affection
Tell me, are you ever scared?
They noticed that you changed your hair
Never tremble, never care
Shower thoughts melt into blood
Your clothes don't fit until you're done
You still can't impress anyone
Head and shoulders, knees and toes
The mirror tends to twist your bones
But why'd you tell the world
That you could lie, you're just a girl
Give this life a little whirl
Before you shut your eyes again
Don't know why you took the heat
They're calling at you from the street
Return the ticket, teared receipt
Or give it back to someone you don't know
The morning bus won't wait for you
To line your eyes with black and blue
Still they seem to see right right through
To drift and gaze behind the view
Your words will leave them in suspense
And never think to make some sense
You wished upon a cloudless sky
The rays of sun turned your skin dry
But why'd you tell the world
That you could fly, you're just a girl
Give this life a little whirl
Before you shut your eyes again
Don't know why you took the heat
They're calling at you from the street
Return the ticket, teared receipt
Or give it back to someone you don't know
If you get scared of something new
Don't walk away and let it get to you
Instead of finding different ways
To stop spiralling away
Give it back and don't go home
It doesn't feel safe alone
Wait around for softer songs
The innocence won't last that long
They noticed that you changed your hair
Never tremble, never care
Shower thoughts melt into blood
Your clothes don't fit until you're done
You still can't impress anyone
Head and shoulders, knees and toes
The mirror tends to twist your bones
But why'd you tell the world
That you could lie, you're just a girl
Give this life a little whirl
Before you shut your eyes again
Don't know why you took the heat
They're calling at you from the street
Return the ticket, teared receipt
Or give it back to someone you don't know
The morning bus won't wait for you
To line your eyes with black and blue
Still they seem to see right right through
To drift and gaze behind the view
Your words will leave them in suspense
And never think to make some sense
You wished upon a cloudless sky
The rays of sun turned your skin dry
But why'd you tell the world
That you could fly, you're just a girl
Give this life a little whirl
Before you shut your eyes again
Don't know why you took the heat
They're calling at you from the street
Return the ticket, teared receipt
Or give it back to someone you don't know
If you get scared of something new
Don't walk away and let it get to you
Instead of finding different ways
To stop spiralling away
Give it back and don't go home
It doesn't feel safe alone
Wait around for softer songs
The innocence won't last that long
