44 04:14
You’re a skyline Always there but never close enough You’re the sun and I’m burning Lose all I dream of You’re the moon and I’m a werewolf All I can do is howl At the reflection on the water I can’t reach Where are you Kept me waiting Leave me out in the cold Never where you say you’ll be Fire eyes never at the right time You take any soul you can get Make them pay with their lives
2.
Got No Time 02:40
Here I am, a reminder three times a year An obligatory catch up Boring, tame, safe You’d have asked but you didn’t think I’d want to come You might as well say ‘I’ll bring the drinks and you bring the drama’ But you know I quit the stage a long time ago Out of sight Out of mind Got no time What’s your incentive? What’s your reward? What if I told you I’d done this before? Would I reappear on your radar? Hitting the town and tagging behind Only worth knowing when accessorised with wine
3.
Smile 04:26
Work me twice as hard Wear heels twice as high Shut down in conversation By a man named interruption A faceless body on a TV screen A pair of legs on a magazine Blue jeans, long sleeves The stranger in the car screams out But I will not smile for you And I’m not your darling My thoughts, my head, my muses Too similar to the faceless others My home is not a kitchen My job is not a mother We’re told we’re crazy if we stand up to you But what did silence ever do You deny that it could be you Then call us sluts from across the room
4.
Watch out, I’m looking over my shoulder and you won’t do what I told you I’m on lookout, wait to see if you snap again I’m pushing buttons, you ain’t listening I’m unhinged, but you’re too stubborn to work it out And I’m too bold to give it up tonight We’re chasing out own tails rather than settling down How long have we got to keep going round The sun isn’t really orange And the sea isn't really blue Everything is on the line But you’ve got nothing to prove Keep me in your pocket And in the lilac of your mind I’ve got a feeling we’ll be just fine Take me over, make me over It doesn't get better than this You keep me sane, and I’ll keep you on your toes You’ve never had to deal with this before Climb over walls, look at me twice Living your best life, give me mine I overcomplicate overcompensate Breathe before I suffocate Spaces to crawl in, lines to be drawing Maybe I’m not the best with timing The sun isn’t really orange And the sea isn’t really blue You’re looking at me with those eyes And I don’t know what to do Keep me in your sightline And keep me to yourself Leave me by your window
