You take the best of me,
I’ve drained into your stream,
and i’m not fighting back anymore.

The only way is up,
The rest compressed into dust,
To make space for the new.
Bigger’s better to you.

Now i’m not saying i’m not yours,
I remember from where i came.
But you’ve since tripped over your words.
I just don’t believe you anymore.

You’re only there for me when i’ve got something you want.
You’re in overload.
I wish you’d take it slow.
Biting the hand you feed, baby, you leave me just hanging on.
You’re in overload. I wish you would take it slow.

I’m tired of this city,
Of false inclusivity.
Scrubs up all too well,
and hides behind itself.

I feel the tension tight,
Under a paper sky.
The strangers just get by,
Will they ever climb high enough?

But where else could they rather be?
There isn’t any more than this.
If these lights don’t leave you fulfilled,
then whatever will?

You’re only there for me when i’ve got something you want.
You’re in overload, I wish you’d take it slow.
Biting the hand you feed, baby, you leave me just hanging on.
You’re in overload. I wish you would would take it slow.

What happened to the heart i knew?
The fruit has no more to bear and I’m not recognising you.
You’re only there for me when I’ve got something you want.
Biting the hand that you feed, baby you leave me just hanging on.
Take it slow.
I wish you would.

I don’t want to be done with you but I’m finding it hard.
I want to keep up with you but I can’t.
Where are you? Where are you? Who are you? Who are you?
