lyrics

There’s a habit of my mind
to try and get the best of me
All the visions of my eyes
They never reveal anything

If you come for my heart
it mind end up being depressing
I come over in the night
To try and get you to get me

And all you see is somebody clever
Suddenly I become a stranger

I believe that I can be what you want
Ask me and I can make the time stop short

And I know that I can be somebody better
Hold me, we’ll keep it together

There’s a way my body and yours
The room spins and everything shudders
I find the less I explore
The more I discover

There’s a song in your breath and you sing
In a beautiful whisper
And it gets in my head and the words
They tell me to kiss her

And I know that I can be somebody better
Hold me, we’ll keep it together
All you see is somebody clever
Suddenly I become a stranger

Take all of my insecurities
Until we get to the point where
I believe that I can be what you want
Ask me and I can make the time stop short

And I know that I can be somebody better
Hold me, we’ll keep it together
