Hemingway - Self Protection Lyrics



Hemingway - Self Protection Lyrics




Set myself alight
Now I don't know
If I'm the only one
Who ever gets it right
But I'm head long in fire
And if all the things
They say of me
Come true then I guess
I must be a liar
As they conspire
All my misdeeds
My in-betweens
Get swallowed up
By this funeral pyre

It burns my skin
Like a solar flare
Just because its unseen
That doesn't mean
That its not there
In the end we're all laid bare

Tear myself apart
No I'm not waiting
On your validation
For my life to start
And I won't just expire
Got no thoughts
Of burning up then out
I guess its all done
Barr the shouting

It burns my skin
Like a solar flare
Just because its unseen
That doesn't mean
That its not there
In the end we're all laid bare

Na na nana na na na na
Na na nana na na na na
Na na nana na na na na

Just carbon wrapped in lies
I can see through
This fools disguise
Return us to the brooding skies
No matter how we try
We'll never equalise
But oh my god how we try

The veil slips from our eyes
Reality floods our minds
We're grains of sand on a beach
Used for measuring time
The veil slips from our eyes
Reality floods our minds
We're grains of sand on a beach
Used for measuring time

Just carbon wrapped in lies
I can see through
This fools disguise
Return us to the brooding skies
No matter how we try
We'll never equalise
But oh my god how we try
