The Language of Coincidence

[Verse 1]
I’m watching how I speak
I don’t want them noticing me
I’m from the outside
I don’t want them to see my disguise
When the metro car fills up with eyes

[Pre-Chorus]
Luckily I breathe
Between the words I speak
Long live the lie
That the spoken word casts us a permanent light

[Chorus]
If it won’t sell me out
I’ll say whatever I want
If it won’t sell me out I’ll say
And if it won’t sell me out
I’ll say whatever I want
And I’ll go on and on
‘Til I can understand what I want

[Verse 2]
What a sweet relief
You invited me to stare down a drink
Well, let's close both our eyes
Now picture what I’m saying
There’s a world in your eyes
I’m not sure what I’m saying
Am I pronouncing it right?

[Pre-Chorus]
Coincidences speak
If you listen close and ask what they mean
Long live my lie
That my spoken word casts me a permanent light

[Chorus]
If it won’t sell me out
I’ll say whatever I want
If it won’t sell me out I’ll say
If it won’t sell me out
I’ll say whatever I want
I’ll go on and on
‘Til I can understand what I want
