Here Comes Glitterboy

Under this white light
I watch my conscience take flight
It’s coming back around again
This is not a state of mind I like to maintain

If you met me at a party
You likely wouldn’t like me
I’m a potent mix of sarcasm and slight social anxiety
That’s all

I hate the way my mind works day to day to find
Intrusive thoughts that keep me up at night
Would that I could rewind
I wouldn’t waste my time online
It’s a reach but I can fantasise
On and on, on and on

These days I’m a phantom
Oh if you could see me now
It’s a battle of attrition
A battle I could win if I only knew how

If you met me at a party
You likely wouldn’t like me
I’m a potent mix of sarcasm and slight social anxiety
For all the stars above our eyes
We’re burning bridges, cutting ties
I’m drowning in hellogoodbyes
It’s not easy to summarise

I’ll sink
And I’ll drown
Before I make a compromise

I hate the way my mind works day to day to find
Intrusive thoughts that keep me up at night
Would that I could rewind
I wouldn’t waste my time online
It’s a reach but I can fantasise
On and on, on and on

I’ll sink
And I’ll down
I’ll sink
And I’ll drown
I’ll sink
And I’ll drown

If you met me at a party
You likely wouldn’t like me
I’m a potent mix of sarcasm and slight social anxiety
And now it seems like there’s no dealing with the way I’m feeling
All these adjectives that come to mind
Dissolve before the words arrive

I hate the way my mind works day to day to find
Intrusive thoughts that keep me up at night
Would that I could rewind
I wouldn’t waste my time
I wouldn’t waste my time

I hate the way my mind works day to day to find
Intrusive thoughts that keep me up at night
Would that I could rewind
I wouldn’t waste my time online
It’s a reach but I can fantasise
On and on, on and on

It’s a reach but I can fantasise

It’s a reach but I can
