Mew - Cartoons and Macramé Wounds Lyrics

You drew me cartoons
So playful.

You drew me cartoons
So playful.
(Oh)

(But you ran away)
You drew me cartoons
So playful.
(Oh)

(Memories drawn
But you ran away)
You drew me cartoons
So playful.
(Oh)

(Memories drawn
But you ran away)
You drew me cartoons
So playful.
(Oh)

(Memories drawn tonight
But you ran away)
You drew me cartoons
Drew me cartoons

You watch the way you're always keeping score.
You keep the score.
You keep it.

(Abstract.
While you wait for me.
But you wanna get back and so lets meet here.)

Put your hand in mine.
We will go skating
On the thinnest ice that we can find.
(Ah)
It takes me summer to say
(Ah)
It takes me winter in a day

Honestly see, they're like you and me.
Frozen when we start. We cannot help it.
Easy to destruct. Taken apart.

Put your hand in mine.
We will go skating
On the thinnest ice that we can find.
(Ah)
Tonight I'm watching the sky
The creatures you drew
They remain alive
(Ah)
The cushions lying here
And what do you want?
Is this what happens to us now?

Sunk beneath the sea.
That's no way to be.
What came over me?
Growing old with you.
This is what we do.
We are leaving wounds.

Sunk beneath the sea.
That's no way to be.
What came over me?
(Lied to you for)
Growing old with you.
This is what we do.
We are leaving wounds.
(Macrame)

I will let you know.
You just say you want me too.
I will say the words,
If you meant that you'd stay with me.

Would you like to be a creature to us all?
(Would you like to be? Would you like to be?)
Did I ease your scar? A wound in macrame.
(Did I ease your scar? Did I ease your scar?)

To say words we decipher
And what's worse we're no wiser
