Velcro Boy - In Time Lyrics

Turn the lights off, let them glow
I just don't want to go home

I know in time, I'll let go
I just wanted you to know

Take my hand, we'll run away
We'll come back for a nother day

Over roof tops through the stars
I don't know where you are

My body is foreign currency with low exchange rates
It is an empire built from bones that crumble in rain
But I have forgotten how to cry so I am still here, mostly
Listening for heartbeat proof that I'm real
Some days I am not
Some days I hear nothing and become a dream
A body I do not recognise and a series of movements I did not make on purpose
My hands move on their own, my feet know where to go, somehow I am still so lost
Still so alone
A voice I do not recognise
My mouth sculpting words that I think are mine
But they are not the ones I want to say and everything sounds
Distorted like voices underwater and I think I might be drowning
Feels like the world might fall down around me
The transparency of my foundation in morning sunshine
Does not cover a face I don't recognise
My foundations are crumbling
And this face that I don't recognise
It kind of looks like me but sad
What I mean is that it kind of looks like the part of me that you don't know
The parts I masked
This face that I don't recognise became the mask
And I forget what's underneath
What I mean to say is sorry, how are you doing?
I've always admired your ability to answer that question
And your inability to return it
I don't know what I'd say if you did
I'd like say I see myself in glimpses
Like I only exist in the spaces between synapses
And that some days I don't exist at all
