Lately

Lately I have noticed you’ve been talking much too loud
Hide away, no, throw away your loud and tainted mouth
Don’t just stand there, pull up two chairs, one for you and me
I will watch your nose and it grows guess that you can’t see how I’ve been scared
World won’t see me there
Souls been traded outright for a fare
Weakness takes the lead when strength is scarce
I’ve been seeing you too long to know
I must runaway

Lately I have noticed you’ve been talking much too proud
Throw away, no fall away, your feet have left the ground
Don’t just lay there, pull up two chairs, one for you and me
I will watch your dose and it goes up till you can’t see how I’ve been scared
World won’t see me there
Souls been traded outright for a fare
Weakness takes the lead when strength is scarce
I’ve been seeing you too long to know
I must runaway

Hide awake, you’ll see me there
Blue eyes and golden hair - I was wrong
Don’t believe the names they called you yesterday
They all look the same – they’re wrong.

Lately I have noticed you’ve been talking in my sleep
Hide away, no, throw away your aces kings and queens
Don’t just stand there, pull up two chairs, one for you and me
I will watch your luck and it goes gone so you can see how I’ve been scared
World won’t see me there
Souls been traded outright for a fare
Weakness takes the lead when strength is scarce
I’ve been seeing you too long to know
I must runaway
