[Verse 1]
I never thought I would say
“I don't need someone to make my day
I don't need to fear being betrayed
By some girl or something”
[Verse 2]
Now I'm taking opportunities
Without the need to feel weak at the knees
There are no eyes controlling me
With the illusion of loving
[Chorus 1]
I think something different is in store
Take a look back to the cutting room floor
[Verse 3]
I have no sympathy
For any past version of me
Who decided to act lonely
Just to get some attention
[Verse 4]
I didn't know how permanent it would be
When I first combined you with me
It was not my personality
Just a gratuitous invention
[Chorus 2]
I think something different is in store
Take a look back to the cutting room floor
Motion to me like a silent tormentor
We can still make this a pressureless venture
[Middle 8]
I keep chasing lies and faking ties
And I don't need this anymore
Keep raising fires and lighting pyres
Where there was no spark there before
Keep chasing lies and faking ties
And I don't need this anymore
Keep raising fires and lighting pyres
Where there was no spark there before
[Chorus 3]
I think something different is in store
Take a look back to the cutting room floor
I just need to start to believe this
Am I still spinning the same way the world is?
