you start it.
i like to lie about,
i like to lie about all kinds of things.
even if they're small,
there's nothing that can sway the way i think.
you hold it to me now,
these words that make me feel so insecure.

pick my pockets.
diamonds aren't in the rough,
i think you're looking way to far and hard.
diamonds aren't in the rough,
they’re picked up moulded,
shined to find the spark.
where is the value in material things
that you can’t discard?

drop to shatter.
i watch this film go on,
i’m watching with so much intent.
yes it’s unethical
but somehow it makes perfect sense.

so jealous.
i’m smiling most the time,
i smile so that you’ll never see the fear.
my eyes into the light,
you blind yourself so logic disappears.
so inappropriate,
the time it takes to gander up a name.

with hold to hold it.
i watch this film go on,

this particular time zone,
widens the gap doubles the distance.

i’ll never wear it no
i’ll never wear it no
i’ll never wear it no
i’ll never wear it no
i’ll never wear it no
i’ll never wear it no
i’ll never wear it no
or am i too obvious.

i am afraid to be,
yes i’m afraid to be myself.
cause they keep telling me,
i’m trying to be someone else.
how can you know these things
unless you’ve been inside my head?

we push your buttons.
