Upside Down

I've got pockets full of rocks
And twisted sleepy sheets
I don't know what to say
I make death defying leaps
Towards you everyday
Until we're orbiting

I can almost here your thoughts
And see your missing angles
Don't go that way
You might fall in like a stone
Collect your doubts and set them on
The wet black bough

First kisses, near misses
Teacher hisses tell me what you've learned
Everything I thought I wanted
In this world has got me turned
Upside down

If these suburban stalls
We've made our own decisions
To break away and start again
With dirt and gravel
A circle has been broken
But another reappears

Its smaller but stronger than
It ever was before
Broken branches
See them shake your family tree
There's no new leaves
Just petals on
The wet black bough

First kisses, near misses
Teacher hisses tell me what you've learned
Everything I thought I wanted
In this world has got me turned
Upside down
Upside down

Don't go that way
You might sink in like a stone
Collect your doubt and set it on
A wet black bough

First kisses, near misses
Teacher hisses tell me what you've learned
Everything I thought I wanted
In this world has got me turned
Upside down
Upside down
