Eight Legs
I've been short of logic so
I'm passed out on the patio, this cold and stony floor
And I've been here before. 12 times
I'm slime and I've got one thing on my mind
You're on my mind

Well she will sit and talk to me
But that's not quite enough for me
I'll send a nasty text
To show I'm not impressed
She won't comply with the one thing on my mind
You're on my mind

Something in my brain
And that explains the way that I behave
Need not feel ashamed
These grey days

I've been to a party so
I'm passed out on the patio outside of your back door
And I've been here before
12 times, I'm slime and I've got one thing on my mind
You're on my mind

I've been short of logic so
I'm passed out on the patio, this cold and stony floor
And I've been here before. 12 times
I'm slime and I've got one thing on my mind
It's on my mind

Something in my brain
And that explains the way that I behave
Need not feel ashamed
These grey days

I've been to a party so
I'm passed out on the patio outside of your back door
And I've been here before. 12 times
I'm slime and I've got one thing on my mind
You're on my mind

Well she will sit and talk to me
But that's not quite enough for me
I'll send a nasty text to show I'm not impressed
She won't comply with the one thing on my mind
You're on my mind

Wish we hadn't changed
Wish we hadn't kissed good bye to those old days
Wished we stayed there safe
These grey days

It's days like these that will put me on my knees
It's days like these that will put me on my knees
It's days like these that will put me on my knees
It's days like these that will put me on my knees
It's days like these that will put me on my knees
It's days like these that will put me on my knees

Alone with you with nothing to do
We're lost again for something to say
Although it's wrong we'll carry on pretending
Alone with you with nothing to do
We're lost again for something to say
Although it's wrong we'll carry on pretending
Alone with you with nothing to do
We're lost again for something to say
Although it's wrong we'll carry on pretending

The highs the lows the too's and fro's
You'll come and go, but never know
That this absurd four letter word means nothing

I roam the streets in pouring rain
The alcohol won't ease the pain
The image in the mirror frame is breaking

I know I'm strange, I know I've changed
I'm being brave for no ones sake
I've got two legs so I can run away
And stop

At the end of the day it makes no difference what I say
We both know that you'll always get your way

Is there a hole in your head?
Did you not here what I just said?
No matter what you will always get your way

At the end of the day I lack the will to escape
We both know I've nothing left to give

Is there something in your mind
That makes it so hard to be kind?
We both know I've nothing left to give

The highs the lows the too's and fro's
You'll come and go, but never know
That this absurd four letter word means nothing

I roam the streets in pouring rain
The alcohol won't ease the pain
The image in the mirror frame is breaking

I know I'm strange, I know I've changed
I'm being brave for no ones sake
I've got two legs so I can run away

Dull or floored I'm insecure
It's clear to me that we've grown forward
I've got no faith in friendship anymore

It makes me dumb, it makes me shake
My sense of feel has gone away
As if your take will knock me out of shape

I'm uninspired and full of doubt
But these grey days might sort me out
And put some colour back into the world

I've been to a party so
I'm passed out on the patio outside of your back door
And I've been here before. 12 times
I'm slime and I've got one thing on my mind
You're on my mind

Well she will sit and talk to me
But that's not quite enough for me
I'll send a nasty text to show I'm not impressed
She won't comply with the one thing on my mind
You're on my mind

Something in my brain
And that explains the way that I behave
Need not feel ashamed
These grey days

Something in my brain
And that explains the way that I behave
Need not feel ashamed
These grey days
