[Verse 1]
With my ankles raised up by your neck
Waiting to see what you'll do next
My fingers catch inside your breath
Just take a pause and keep it free
Sign out from who I'm usually
You won't be getting close to me
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause I'm only human
What are you?
I'm leaving 'round back like you asked me to
I'm human
What are you?
What are you?
I'm on the outside looking in
Don't have a place for my adrenaline
Anything to prove that I'm living
I'm living
[Chorus]
If you're looking for forgiveness
I have never been the one
If you're looking for a hobby
Baby, we can have some fun
Anything to prove I'm living
Anything to prove wе're free
As long as I'm not busy
[Verse 2]
Don't you find it hard we nevеr fight?
'Cause you've been treating me much kinder
But the fingers crossed beside you
Make me nervous after every night
And I'm still waiting to feel better
I'll be waiting for that forever
[Pre-Chorus]
Ooh, what are you?
Remember we believed "if destroyed, still true"?
I'm human, I need you
I need you
And I'm on the outside looking in
Don't have a place for my adrenaline
Anything to prove that I'm living
I'm living
[Chorus]
If you're looking for forgiveness
I have never been the one
If you're looking for a hobby
Maybe we can have some fun
Anything to prove I'm living
Anything to prove we're free
As long as I'm not busy
[Bridge]
Of course I want more, of course I want more
But logic prevails, I don't hope anymore
Of course I want more, of course I want more
But logic prevails, I don't hope anymore
[Verse 3]
So let me fuck up your sheets and then leave with no kiss
And admit that we both can't do deeper than this
You tell me I'm funny, reply to my name
But turning your back after checking I came
At least that's something
[Chorus]
If you're looking for forgiveness
I have never been the one
If you're looking for a hobby
Maybe we can have some fun
Anything to prove I'm living
Anything to prove we're free
As long as I'm not busy
[Outro]
As long as I'm not busy
As long as I'm not busy
As long as I'm not busy
As long as I'm not busy

Kate Bush was someone I was thinking about when I was making this. She was an artist first and foremost and created the work. If it happened to be a hit then cool, but she was never going to deviate from just coming out of her head. This feels like a 2021 [1985 Bush hit] ‘Running Up That Hill.’ It’s...
