Out Of It

I’m frightened
I’m fighting all my darkest parts
I tighten and hope this feeling doesn’t last
My arms and eyes are empty
The monster in me’s feeling frail
I’m stranded on land
Without a boat to sail
No one said it was okay
You took part of me when you left
No one said it was okay
You keep changing channels in my head
No one said it was okay
That you take a part of me when you bailed
No one said it was okay
Now I’m trapped without a boat to sail
No one said it was okay (no one)
No one said it was okay (no one)
No one said it was okay (no one)
I’m hurting
Take my hand for your curtain call
Lap up the roar, bow for your crowd to thank them all
My arms and eyes are empty
The monster in me’s feeling frail
I’m stranded on land
Without a boat to sail
Can anybody hear me, hear me?
Anybody but you
Can anybody hear me, hear me?
And come to my rescue
Can anybody hear me, hear me?
And come to my rescue
Can anybody hear me, hear me?
Anybody but you
This is my mind, get out of it
This is my space, don’t touch
This mouth is mind, get your words out of it
Step back, don't speak, don’t judge
This is my mind, get out of it
Don’t call, don't knock, don’t buzz
My world makes sense now that you’re out of it
There’s still me, still you, just not us

Undone

Ding ding, round two
The war’s not over
I’m still stuck to the sofa
My arms and legs are froze instead
Of finding strength to get up, I roll over
Giving in and listening to people living in my head
Their whispering is deafening so I tread so carefully
I make it to the mirror without being seen
Running water on my wrists where my pulse does flips
I breath in deep and hit the light switch
Ding ding, round three
And the war still rages like animals in cages
Feeding on my failings, I’ve been here ages
My cold skin shivers
I’m looking at a stranger looking back in the mirror
Will anybody hear me if I shout right now?
Will anyone chase me if I run?
Will anybody wait until I’m sleeping sound?
Does anybody care that i’m becoming undone?
I’m floating out of my head
Thought it would be fun at first but now
I want to touch the ground instead
I’m floating out my head
I want to come back down to Earth again
Will anybody hear me if I shout right now?
Will anyone chase me if I run?
Will anybody wait until I’m sleeping sound?
Does anybody care that i’m becoming undone?
Ding ding, round four
My back’s against the ropes
On the floor, eyes dazed, mouth sore
Back aches, legs stuck, teeth broken
My ears ring as the crowd go wild for the opponent
I’m giving in again and listening to them
The clock is ticking, seconds dissipate
And still I’m laying out face down while their eyes all stare
I find my feet, throw a punch but there’s no one there.
I’m floating out of my head
Thought it would be fun at first but now I want to touch the ground instead
I’m floating out my head
I want to come back down to Earth again
Will anybody hear me if I shout right now?
Will anyone chase me if I run?
Will anybody wait until I’m sleeping sound?
Does anybody care that i’m becoming undone?

Wake Up

Wake up, work, fall asleep at the wheel
Clock watch til you clock off
Pretend that your real life is a box set that you’ve not started yet
Wait til you binge it, it’ll be a smash hit, yeah?
Doesn't work like that, kid
You’re already in it, neck deep, treading water when you never went swimming
Off your knees and start running on your hamster wheel
Meet a stranger in a dark room and ask how they feel
We’re all starving for something
But we feel full up
We’re all ready for running
But our feet are stuck
We’re all sick of the same things
But I want what you’ve got
We want to see things change but keep our eyes shut
We have learned nothing from history
The world we’re in is the one want they want us to see
We have learned nothing from history
I wanna change the world but what’s in it for me?
We are lost
Bumping heads in the dark non-stop
Life’s like one of those rides where your tummy goes funny when it drops
Is there an end in sight?
Let’s not look.
Throw your arms in the air under the strobe lights
And for one night only, I could get to know the
Girl I could have been if I was
More brave, more smart, picture perfect, more tall but I’ve heard the more you rise up
The harder you fall
We have learned nothing from history
The world we’re in is the one want they want us to see
We have learned nothing from history
I wanna change the world but what’s in it for me?
We’re all starving for something
But we feel full up
We’re all ready for running
But our feet are stuck
We’re all sick of the same things
But I want what you’ve got
We want to see things change but keep our eyes shut
We have learned nothing from history
The world we’re in is the one want they want us to see
We have learned nothing from history
I wanna change the world but what’s in it for me?
I wanna change the world but what’s in it for me?
I wanna change the world but what’s in it for me?

Grubby

Has your day ever started where you feel so grubby?
Echo chamber dark thoughts until they’re mucky
Little puppy chasing fire like you’re chasing your tail
Paws dirty when you play, it leaves a messed up trail
She looks cute but then she’s bearing her teeth
Bark and bite then curls up under your feet
What do you want baby?
Nobody can figure you out
What do you like baby?
Nobody can figure you out
What’s on your mind baby?
Nobody can figure you out
The ‘I don’t know’ is getting pretty old now
Take a step in my shoes, find a home in my skin
Feel the weight in my head
Keep it in, keep it in
Take a step in my shoes, find a home in my skin
Feel the weight in my head
Keep it in, keep it in
Take a step in my shoes, find a home in my skin
Feel the weight in my head
Keep it in, keep it in
Take a step in my shoes, find a home in
I’ll ask the questions and then you can try the answering
(What’s on your mind baby?)
I’m fighting the darkest parts of mine
And for a second there, I thought I’d be fine to open up
Tell a total stranger stuff
But as the words came up, I pushed them back inside
I know it’s tricky to get into how I’m thinking
And to follow how my feelings drive the words that I’ve been speaking
But I’ve been taking steps to flatten all these feelings of doubt
Part clouds
I need to breathe in before I can breathe out
Take a step in my shoes, find a home in my skin
Feel the weight in my head
Keep it in, keep it in
Take a step in my shoes, find a home in my skin
Feel the weight in my head
Keep it in, keep it in
Take a step in my shoes, find a home in my skin
Feel the weight in my head
Keep it in, keep it in
Take a step in my shoes, find a home in
I’ll ask the questions and then you can try the answering
Has your day ever started where you feel so grubby?
Echo chamber dark thoughts until they’re mucky
What’s on your mind baby?
What do you want baby?
Nobody can figure you out
What do you like baby?
Nobody can figure you out
What’s on your mind baby?
Nobody can figure you out
The ‘I don’t know’ is getting pretty old now

At The End Of It All
03:53
|

And at the end of it all
I will fall back into you
And at the end of it all
I will fall back into you
The night escapes and I’m left
Soaked in words unsaid to you
But at the end of it all
I will fall back into you
Loving you is fleeting, it changes meaning
Reaching in the dark, feeling for a switch
Blink
And then I’m basking in the rays of it
Of your light, your eyes, the pictures in your head
The way you say you wish the world would stop and start again
What a beautiful mess
Still together and it makes no sense yet
If I had to write a script, I’d keep the me and you bits
And filter out the other shit
They’ll never get it that we just fit
But our story isn’t mine to write or for me to define
But let me linger on my favourite line and read it over a million times like
And at the end of it all
I will fall back into you
And at the end of it all
I will fall back into you
The night escapes and I’m left
Soaked in words unsaid to you
But at the end of it all
I will fall back into you
We’re fragile and painstaking
Trying to hold on without breaking trust
But taking care of someone who won’t show themselves love is suffocating us
So do we give up?
Move on, up sticks, old dog, new tricks, new loves, heart fixed
The best for you is all that I wish
If this is it then I’m grateful
The world’s hard it’s hateful
It’s ugly and greedy and spiteful and tells you it needs you and loves you
The truth is there’s only pockets of light
And I’m glad you were mine
And at the end of it all
I will fall back into you
(And I’m glad you were mine)
And at the end of it all
I will fall back into you
I don’t have all the answers
Only things to say
And I can feel things change
I don’t have all the answers
Only things to say
Because of you, I’ve been saved
I don’t have all the answers
Only things to say
Is imagining we’re happy the same as being happy?
I don’t have all the answers
Only things to say
Will we last another day?
I don’t have all the answers
Only things to say
And I can feel things change
I don’t have all the answers
Only things to say
You’ve taught me how to love and taught my heart to race
And at the end of it all
I will fall back into you
And at the end of it all
I will fall back into you
(Because of you, I’ve been saved)
And at the end of it all
I will fall back into you
And at the end of it all
I will fall back into you
