I held my tongue, on the joyride and they all laughed with arms out wide oh no. I held his hand, but felt alone, don't want to be here or at home, oh no. Darling don't tempt me, I'm miles deep, staring at a blank screen, chasing an ideal dream and he's fighting for things that don't exist and I'm trying not to think oh all the things that I missed and I tried to figure it out. But they all talk so quick and they all stare so loud. And the elephant in my room remembers, how I used to go and lose my temper. Over little changes and all the faces you'd make when you're tryna be smart. So I will play my part. I spent too long On what she said Let myself fall back in a sofa bed I paid my debts with these old sights the mirrors sick of looking at my eyes. Darling don’t tempt me, I'm miles deep. Staring at a blank screen. Chasing an ideal dream And he's fighting for things that don’t exist And I'm trying not to think of all the things that I missed. And I’m always trying to be cool. But I just want to tell you the truth. And I hope we both pull through cause there's not much else that I can do. And the elephant in my room Remembers, how I used to go and lose my temper Over little changes and all the faces you make when your trying sound smart So I will play my part.

Last week, somebody took the agony that they keep And threw it on the words that I speak Today, I saw the person that made me this way, So I ran into the nearest café, Its kinda scary, its kinda sad How many people turn from good to bad And I have so much left to feel. They seem to pick me, Straight through my bones You know sometimes I just wanna get straight home. And I have so much left to feel, I have so much left to feel Lonely maybe they’re just the lonely ones Expressing themselves through moving thumbs Expressing themselves through boredom And you used to say happiness isn’t a fixed state It depends on what you look at and how relate, You were so wise and now now you’re so full of hate Its kinda scary, Its kinda sad how many people turn from good to bad. And I have so much left to feel They seem to pick me, Straight through my bones You know sometimes I just wanna get straight home. And I have so much left to feel, I have so much left to feel.

Dog Videos 03:28
Nothing to keep me on my toes Just watching those dog videos To waste the morning, Nothing's coming, Doctor's calling Skipping down the Tesco aisle Getting freaked when babies smile A messy weekend, sent me spinning Into darker ways of thinking Fake smiling to the guys Searching in the sky For some self-respect Think I lost it when I met you Now I can’t understand Why I can’t be my own best friend Now you’ll be calling in the morning Offer something, and I'll say something cynical like I don’t need your money, no no I don't need your money, no no I'm just gonna live on my phone Forever watching dog videos, I don't need your money, no no I don't need your money, no no I just need some self control Forever dog videos. Nothing to keep me on my toes Reaching for some all time lows Watch hands spin on the dial near my bed See I was never taught not to regret the Things I've lost and that its usually just in my head. Flash back to a month ago Some things just don't click on coke Now I'm sitting here just playing with my time. I was just about to quit, then everything did turn to shit and now I'm the victim of my own petty crime. I don’t need your money, no no I don't need your money, no no I need something to fix my soul not these stupid dog videos I don’t need your money, no no I don't need your money, no no I'm just gonna stay at home Forever watching dog videos

I heard you were in the back Playing hard with your eye contact Picking fights for the laugh Do you talk to your mother like that? Haven’t you heard the news? Well you got sick old fashioned views And nobody’s ever gonna agree Cause you walk through the irony I wouldn’t get that far I wouldn’t get that far Eddie’s in the cold blue light Clinging on to Friday night Watching everyone pass by Fading away Eddie’s in the cold blue light Prowling on the weak and high Oh it’s such a faithless fight And they can see through it So I watch the world Participate in its recurring moving state And hope that all this fear Will come to pass So I watch the world Participate in its recurring moving state And hope that all this fear Will turn to black Now there’s a girl dancing by your side You grab her wrist and pull her behind Think your king cause you were in that show But darling that was seven years ago Is it some effort to replicate your youth? Your nearly thirty and you can't face up to truth So you abuse and terrify the young Well I hope someone cuts out your tongue I wouldn't get that far I wouldn't get that far Eddie’s in the cold blue light Clinging on to Friday night Watching everyone pass by Fading away Eddie’s in the cold blue light Prowling on the weak and high Oh it's such a faithless fight And they can see through it So I watch the world Participate In its recurring moving state And hope that all this fear Will comes to pass So I watch the world Participate in its recurring moving state And hope that all this fear Will turn to black
