Cavetown - Running With Scissors
On 'Running With Scissors', Cavetown sounds more curious and playful than ever.
Lyrics
[Verse 1]
On my way home from the store
I bought your favorite colour
So we can paint your room together
I'll cover your ceiling with nebulas
I'm not really sure if you'll remember
But in that one moment last summer, I felt pretty good with being alive and all
It seems memories are all we've got
[Chorus]
I've been getting tired of all these ghost boys telling me what to say
There's two for my heart and two for my brain
And the one for my body keeps running away
I've been wasting time on all these ghost boys and all their selfish ways
Believe me, I can and will fix what they've done
[Verse 2]
Do you think of me anymore as someone you can talk to?
When your face turns to grey-blue
I know you, you're not anti-social
I'm constantly aware that we're sinking
And the spirit boys never let me refrain from thinking
That it's only a matter of time before we break
It seems optimism's all we've got at this point

Cavetown →[Chorus]
I've been getting tired of all these ghost boys telling me what to say
There's two for my heart and two for my brain
And the one for my body keeps running away
I've been wasting time on all these ghost boys and all their selfish ways
Believe me, I can and will fix what they've done
[Verse 3]
But I'm not an optimist, you out of all know this
Sad kids we rhyme like this and all that I know is
Tunes and a rhyme help me more than a therapist
I cannot wait till the day that we reminisce
Times that we changed and the plans that we made
We are growing and learning every single day
And no matter how hard that I try to change
The ghost boys won't go away
But I'm not an optimist, you out of all know this
Sad kids we rhyme like this and all that I know is
Tunes and a rhyme help me more than a therapist
I cannot wait till the day that we reminisce
Times that we changed and the plans that we made
We are growing and learning every single day
And no matter how hard that I try to change
The ghost boys won't go away
[Chorus]
I've been getting tired of all these ghost boys telling me what to say
There's two for my heart and two for my brain
And the one for my body keeps running away
I've been wasting time on all these ghost boys and all their selfish ways
Believe me, I can and will fix what they've done
