You say you can't stand being alone with your thoughts But is it just me, or do you do that a lot? You keep yourself busy by going on walks Discover new ways you'll escape As you start to feel safe Can't stay in one spot, no dream destination Is it self-sabotage or self-preservation? Whatever it's called, I put your favourite things into your cage To distract you from getting away Why stay worried for what you can't control? Said you'd be nothing if not held responsible If you're missing me more than I know Then why won't you fill me in? That wasn't a joke, but you can't take me serious Well, I do it to cope And I hate that you know Does it make it less funny When there are dark undertones? It helps having you here, we're filling the air Laughter is medicine when shit gets severe You're the cure for alzheimer's, that makes memories appear You are carefully observed Why stay worried for what you can't control? Said you'd be nothing if not held responsible But you halt my whole world, spin it backwards And stretch from pole to pole Back to when natural disasters were still as natural But why stay worried for what you can't control? Said you'd be nothing if not held responsible But you halt my whole world, spin it backwards And stretch from pole to pole Back to when natural disasters were still as natural
