Lyrics

Shades

Shades Alexandria Savior

I left your house when you were sleeping
Hadn't correctly got my head screwed on
Tried to find a way to write a note
Couldn't get your shower to work
I sort of wish that it was raining
So that I could pull the hood up on my coat
I'm always happy to be leaving
Could be the company I'm keeping
Like when you're looking for your shades
Rifling through your pockets
And you find them on your face
Ooh I can't escape it, abnormal behavior
Uncontrollably vaporing on 'bout something dumb
Sooner or later
This strange little arrangement
And all of its exchanges
Must cease

Shouldn't have come back
Shouldn't have switched it on at all
Didn't mean to hold you so close
But you know how it goes
I sort of wish that it was sunset
I kind of wish that it was New Year's Day
On a vacant street
I'd cast a long-ass shadow
Like when you're looking for your shades
Rifling through your pockets
And you find them on your face
Walking around in a daze
I don't want to stop it
Baby, let's shoot straight
Ooh I can't escape it
Abnormal behavior 
Uncontrollably vaporing on 'bout something dumb
Sooner or later
This strange little arrangement
And all of its exchanges
Must cease
It’s not easy to see where to go
The misty middle distance swallows
The curves in the only road
I know
That maybe takes us out of here
