Lyrics

Reading It Wrong

Luscious fruit on your platter
Refresh your lurid chatter
Invite me, quickly
You check in your lap-bound pet

Did I make you feel for too long?
I guess I was reading it, wrong
Tell me, we'll be
Best friends through thick and thin
I look up I know you win
Just tell me it meant something

When you run me down I'll follow
When you run me down I'll follow
Stay away, Stay away, Stay away, Stay away

Met level eyes at first whine
It's strange how school feels at the time
Don't eat, just drink
Sing along, play games and, think
Years later gone in a blink
Oh god it makes me sink

When you run me down I'll follow
When you run me down I'll follow
Stay away, Stay away, Stay away, Stay away
When you run me down I'll follow
When you run me down I'll follow
Stay away, Stay away, Stay away, Stay away

Obedience, drains me, drains me
See a better way, I see, myself
You stopped me, from seeing, myself
Now I see you, helter skelter boy

Dying to be something
Something to someone
Dying to be something
Something to someone
Dying to be something
You set me up
Dying to be something
You set me up
