Cold hands, grip firm
Twist a little, go fast
I can feel your breasts, right up in my back
Nothing much changes, ever so slightly
Losing everything, holding on so tightly
Looking for the answers, never taking chances at all
Riding fast in the high notes and the cracks
But when the world gets twisted up, and shaken up, I end up on my back
Reheat my coffee for the seventeenth time
Same things, there’s so little that’s really mine
Passing you by, pretending I don’t know you
Strange to think that you used to be my only, so to speak
It’s strange that we never ever speak
It’s a cry for help, but I’m never coming back
Stuff all my things in a little black bag
And I know that I’m almost done with you
And I know that it’s me, ’cause it’s never you
But the overflow, makes me feel like I’m missing out
Funny to see, we’re older now
Funny how time can’t calm you down
Falling over yourself
Someone take me off the shelf
Our big dumb dreams seem like nothing much at all
And I know that I’m almost done with you
And I know that it’s me, ’cause it’s never you
But the overflow, makes me feel like I’m missing out
The overflow, makes me feel like I’m missing out

Your mother’s in the basement
She’s going through her life
The doctors say she’s crazy
She’s wasted all her time
And the walls are getting closer
There’s space up in the light
She can hear the traffic hang around
Where the lovers came round earlier tonight
Heard you scream when you cry
You fight with your eyes
There’s a letter on the side
And a call came through tonight
Saying shoot on sight
No, my aim’s not right
Oh, I’m just killing time
There’s a hole in every one of us tonight
The neighbours called the police again
There’s a crowd gathered outside
They sealed off the building
Now they’re looking for a crime
And I’m out here taking pictures
I’m just trying to feel alive
There’s a guy selling his dreams
For a place up at the front of the line
Heard you scream when you cry
You fight with your eyes
There’s a letter on the side
And a call came through tonight
Saying shoot on sight
No, my aim’s not right
And I’m just killing time
There’s a hole in every one of us tonight
Shoot on sight
No, my aim’s not right
There’s a hole in every one of us tonight
Shoot on sight
No, my aim’s not right
And I’m just killing time
There’s a hole in every one of us tonight
There’s a hole in every one of us tonight
