Countdown

I think I've been on my own for too long
I've been searching for a voice in ringtones
Always had proclivities to be strong
But acting strong isn't strong for this long

It's the countdown and we'll never be found
Why make it then?
Make it now
There's nobody around
Don't make a sound and we'll never be found
Why make it then?
Make it now
There's nobody around

I turned up to your party too drunk
Sure you can read into that if you want
I planned the words but they've come out all wrong
Like I shook the bottle while the cap was still on
Now the speakers blare an 80s love song
Skipping to the ending while you browse the prologue
Fluorescent light illuminates your contours
My resolution takes a stride from the front door

It's the countdown and we'll never be found
Why make it then?
Make it now
There's nobody around
Don't make a sound and we'll never be found
Why make it then?
Make it now
There's nobody around

The crowd fades into new years day
And I can never let down my pride
And this happens every time
But your shy eyes give it all away
And now we're inching close enough
To beat the final tick of the clock

It's the countdown and we'll never be found
Why make it then?
Make it now
There's nobody around
Don't make a sound and we'll never be found
Why make it then?
Make it now
There's nobody around

We're out of bounds til that clock gets wound
Why make it then?
Make it now
There's nobody around
This house is loud
Let's break out from the crowd
Why make it then?
Make it now
There's nobody

There's nobody around
There's nobody around
