Lapwing
I WATCH AS YOU LOOK BACK,
AND IT SEEMS TO HAUNT ME.
I'M THE WORST, BUT NOT THE FIRST, TO DISCOVER THIS.
WITH EYES LIKE YOURS, THERE'S NOTHING LEFT TO EXPLORE
BUT I'LL TRY MY BEST TO LEAVE YOU THE FLOOR.
AND I'M GLAD, THAT YOU LIKE, ALL THE WORDS I CAN NEVER WRITE.
JUST WATCH THIS LEARNING FILTER THROUGH, WHEN I'M BURNING AT THE VERY THOUGHT OF YOU.
HOW THIS NIGHT CAN TURN SO QUICK, INTO AN EMOTIONLESS ARGUMENT.
BUT IT'S ME, I KNOW, I'VE SEEN IT ALL BEFORE.
I'M CRAWLING OUT FROM MY OWN FRONT DOOR.
I swear you won't leave these walls,
this mind is mine & yours.but nothing more.
To anyone, I'm anyone, I'm everything, can you imagine?
I've been imagining again.
2 PT. 2
What if I built you up this cabin,
only to see you cry when the ashes set in.
I'm feeling heartless and reluctant to hang on.
Wishing you'd just throw me out before it all goes wrong.
AND I'M GLAD, THAT YOU LIKE, ALL THE WORDS I CAN NEVER WRITE.
JUST WATCH THIS LEARNING FILTER THROUGH, WHEN I'M BURNING AT THE VERY THOUGHT OF YOU.
HOW THIS NIGHT CAN TURN SO QUICK, INTO AN EMOTIONLESS ARGUMENT.
BUT IT'S ME, I KNOW, I'VE SEEN IT ALL BEFORE.
I'M CRAWLING OUT FROM MY OWN FRONT DOOR.
Bridge
I CAN'T HURT WHAT THE HEART CAN'T FIND.
TO LET IT IN, IS CRIME OF YOUR TIME.
IT'S A CASE OF PRODUCT PLACEMENT
AND A TEST OF MY OWN IN-PATIENCE,
WHEN IT'S OVER-ALL DISPLACING A SLOTH-FACED ABOMINATION.
(OH)
INDUSTRY, ACCOMODATE ME.
I'M INSULIN FOR THE DIETRY SWEETS,
AT THE DOOR. BUT NOTHING MORE.
AND WHILE I'M AT, COMPLAINING -
I'LL BE WHOEVER I WANT TO BE.
ALL THOSE LIKES FOR THE LOVE OF YOUR CHEST.
LOVE ME. LOVE ME. IT'S ATTENTION AT IT'S BEST.
I SAW A DARKER SIDE TO MY OWN MESS.
IT'S NOT A FILM, THIS IS A BLIND MAN'S TEST.
(I FEEL THE WAVES, THEY'RE TEARING DOWN.
EVERYONE'S OUT, DON'T TAKE ME NOW.
WOAH-OH-OH, OH-OH-OH)
AND I'M GLAD, THAT YOU LIKE, ALL THE WORDS I CAN NEVER WRITE.
JUST WATCH THIS LEARNING FILTER THROUGH, WHEN I'M BURNING AT THE VERY THOUGHT OF YOU.
HOW THIS NIGHT CAN TURN SO QUICK, INTO AN EMOTIONLESS ARGUMENT.
BUT IT'S ME, I KNOW, I'VE SEEN IT ALL BEFORE.
I'M CRAWLING OUT FROM MY OWN FRONT DOOR.
