Handpicked Heathens - You're Doing That Thing Again Lyrics

Eyes peer through the dark
Shadow self's been lingering
Its touch feels familiar
Like embracing a long lost friend
Can't think your way out of here
When your eyes are transfixed on the end

You've been holding those thoughts to your throat again
You're revelling in misery
Time heals what reason cannot
Stop picking at wounds in the dark
"For the last time - I'll be fine"
You say pushing love aside
If your chains weigh you down just hold onto who you are and pull at the weakest link

You need a push to make you move been running in circles
Reaching for ghosts that have never been there
Stop staring at mirrors
You're doing that thing again, nothing good can come of this

Maybe I'm not where I wanna be
Time has left it's mark
You're doing that thing again
Stop picking at wounds in the dark
"For the last time - I'll be fine"
You say pushing love aside
If your chains weigh you down just hold onto who you are and pull at the weakest link

While there may never be a last time before my last night
I know I've pulled myself out of this hole before
If death is all that awaits us, then what's the rush?
As time unfolds, we'll dance to the sway of fate
