Lyrics

Mate

Listen

Maybe you should listen

I don't think you'd like it if I gave you permission

Maybe it's a sign

Lightning in the sky

Thunderstorms coming and I think I know why

Back to the front

What have I done?

Only you can judge me cause sometimes it's fun

You don't have to be vague

What can I say?

Lately I can only see static in gray

Listen

Maybe you should listen

I don't think you'd like it if I gave you permission

Maybe it's a sign

Lightning in the sky

Thunderstorms coming and I think I know why

Back to the front

What have I done?

Only you can judge me cause sometimes it's fun

You don't have to be vague

What can I say?

Lately I can only ever leave it in gray
