[Verse 1]
It's 3:45, I'm alive
Down my pint and hit heights
I lose sight, is this life?
In New Cross, I tick white
I know, I've been here since last night 'cause I can't be left on my own
We chew ears on sofas till dawn
I switch gear and love you some more
I, yeah
[Verse 2]
Now it's twenty past six, I'm in the mix (Yeah)
Say you talk a lot, prettier when you close your lips (Close your lips, yeah)
Sun creeps like an opp, I need it to eclipse
But the darkness so heavy, I can't feel my limbs (Can't feel my limbs)
Sugar coating kills, the cavities are grim
Got the same buttons, you can press, you'rе my twin
But you explode like a grеnade without the pin, yes
[Chorus]
It's been a long time inside your mind
I took way too long
It's quiet in the north, but I was always on my own
And I've tried long
I've tried to run
But l've done wrong
But I could be
[Verse 3]
I can be
What you want, what you need
Text ETAs, go A to B
Watch you undress, a sight to see
I'll right my wrongs if you're right for me
I toss and turn if my mind's unease
I'm off the dole, I roll on E
As paranoia takes a hold of me
I get my mind out the mud
I'm fucked off three pills 'cause the first was a—
Crushed rocks swim deep in my cup
Rowdy 'cause 'round me, there's no one I can't trust
Head in the sand, put hands through a door
I've never been so closer to God
Heart full of frost and a half of a box
I'm wired and wires get crossed
I can be better than this
[Chorus]
It's been a long time inside your mind
I took way too long
It's quiet in the north, but I was always on my own
And I've tried long
I've tried to run
But l've done wrong
But I could be
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 4]
Now before my heart turns cold
Will money ever make me whole?
'Cause there's so many things I can't control
Control, can't control
One-twenty down an open road
I'm pinging like a BlackBerry phone
'Cause there's so many things that I can't
And all of this weight in the back
Want it, get it
'Cause I can't stop
Need it, don't feel it
So I can't stop, uh
I'm all in and you're yawning
'Cause I can't stop
And though my heart keeps beating
I can't stop this feeling, no
