Plans in my Head

[Verse 1]
Is it funny just to test you?
Is it foolishness I do?
Got no reason for my logic
Missing evidence to prove

Tell me all about forgiveness
Think I need a fix of that
In the presence of a witness
It’s never hard to find the facts

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Am I running from an open doorway
Straight into another obvious trap?

[Chorus 1]
All this time I’ve been wasting
The money I have been paying
To be safe in my home
Roof and four walls around me
All these dreams I’ve been cradling
The thoughts I’ve been entertaining
To be settling down
Forcing these sounds from my lips
No more words

[Verse 2]
Are you happy up above there?
Is there something I could do?
Said you always would protect me
I said I’d always sing for you

[Pre-Chorus 2]
But there’s no point in getting angry at you
‘cos there is nothing I can change

[Chorus 2]
All these plans I’ve been making
The effort I have been taking
To be walking this path
Guarding my heart from your ways
All these words I’ve been saying;
The prayers that I have been praying
And they’re with you somewhere
Left in the care of your ear
In the care of your ear
In your hands

[Bridge]
I’ve laid to rest the plans in my head

[Chorus 3]
All this time I’ve been wasting
The money I have been paying
To have comfort in dreams
Painting this scene of relief
The colours slowly are fading
The conversation is waning
And I’m coping alright
But I’m pining for times I can’t reach
They won’t come
I can’t reach this no more
