Lyrics

I fondle keys to my heart
When everyone's heart seems so calm
And you found the lock to my dorm
And opened the doors to my trust
Fund…. my vestry..
The light in my darkest hour is fear
Denies me of anything good
Sooo, don't lose your heart you'll need it

And don't lose your heart
You'll have to take another pill
And tell another lie
And lie amongst your lies
Like tuna in the brine

Take everything that you're not
And don't be so scared to tamper (temper) with (temper) "tampered with"
Evidence (tamper)
Coz you'll come along for the sun
If you come at all
The light in your darkest hour is fear
Denies me at anything good
So, don't lose your heart you'll need it

And to lose your heart you'll have to lie amongst your lies
Like tuna in the brine
And to lose your heart

Don't loose your heart
To lose your heart you'll have to take, take and take and take

Painting a lie seeing the colours
But you seem closer to everything

Painting a lie seeing the colours
But you seem closer to everything

Painting a lie seeing the colours
But you seem closer to everything

Closer now than we ever have been
We're closer now than we ever should be
Closer now than we've ever been before
Closer to everything

Busking for change and changing everything
Feeble fables aren't changing many things
It's my time to shine like a tuna in the brine
For my pregnant paws aren't changing anything

To all of the animals
Who keep sipping the sweat from my back
You're making me ill
And I can't get enough
So take another pill and tell another lie
And lie amongst your lies like tuna in the brine
