LYRICS
-----------
yesterday morning
i saw this man who didn’t know his life
and if he did he chose to lie
he wandered in circles
said who are you and darling who am i
fictional and sleep deprived
but that got me thinking
i haven’t asked myself in all this time
about the boy behind my eyes
is he a stranger
a parasitic pest inside my mind
or is he just the same tonight
time is a sculptor, i’m just the clay
bring me to life now, galatea waits
the world may be paper i’ll be okay
a paper cut hurt me once but still i put pen to page, i’m singing
how can i love you
how can i love you
how can i love you if you can’t love yourself x2
stare in the mirror
still dark outside and i’m already in a dive
you hold my hand to pass the time
its supposed to be clearer
like a little purpose straight from way up high
if that’s the case then where is mine
amorphous and tiring
the changing of the seasons is alright
but not the change from deep inside
the world is a-lying
spin me up in your brutalist designs
i need a piece of peace of mind
time is a sculptor, i’m just the clay
bring me to life now, galatea waits
the world may be paper i’ll be okay
a paper cut hurt me once but still i put pen to page, i’m singing
how can i love you
how can i love you
how can i love you if you can’t love yourself x2
i loved my self from last spring
i thought i knew everything
now i’m him and i think
know i know not a thing and i’m singing like
let me out of this place let me out, let me out of this place let me out x4
how can i love you
how can i love you
how can i love you if you can’t love yourself x2
let me out of this place let me out, let me out of this place let me out
