From the recording Strings & Wood
Lyrics
I come and go
But never really get ahead
I think I know
But do the opposite instead
Try to control
The urges running through my head
Have I missed it or is it just late?
How did I
Get to be the one behind
Don’t I try?
The thought’ll go and loose my mind
Wasting my time
Working on the fucken fly
Has it departed or is it delayed?
And I find myself just going through the motions
Which isn’t the best realisation to have
Though I try
To tell myself
That it’s all right
I’m lying looking myself in the eye
Seem so young
Circles slowly hypnotise
I have have my fun
And back before I realise
There’s only one
Shadow from a distant sun
Am I in it or it just shade?
And I find myself just going through the motions
Which isn’t the best realisation to have
And it is so hard to see
Through routine reality
So I keep
Lying looking myself in the eye
And I find myself just going through the motions
Which isn’t the best realisation to have
And it is so hard to see
Through routine reality
So I keep lying, I keep lying
I keep lying
I’m lying looking myself in the eye
