Late Runner - I Wear Shades Lyrics

I WEAR SHADES


1.
I wear shades to hide my eyes
So you won't see how I feel inside

It's a cover up, it's a hide away
I wear this shield every day

I look at you, you look at me
For twenty seconds there's chemistry

But it's a cover up, it's a hide away
I wear this shield of mirror glasses every day


Chorus
But people don't seem to mind it
They do all the fake things to turn you on

People don't want to fight it
They do all the fake things to turn you on

Come on and let me see
The sunshine in your eyes
There's no need to hide away x2


2.
I wear capes in the dark
And when you sleep I head out

To see the light, the city smog
To see a thousand mortal souls feeling numb

I look at you, you look at me
You think I'm still the one I used to be

But I wear capes, in the dark
And when I do all I feel is casually dumb


Chorus
But people don't seem to mind it
They do all the fake things to turn you on

People don't want to fight it
They do all sorts of the fake things to turn you on

Come on and let me see
The sunshine in your eyes
There's no need to hide (it) away


OUTRO
I wear shades in the dark
And I don't realize how it breaks your heart
When I don't look at you, and you don't look at me
Come set me free, set me free
You're close to me
