Album: Mirrorwriting (2011)

Missing Person

Couldn't let you know I'd gone.
You might've thought you'd done something wrong.
Well I can tell you why I've been setting fire to the wires that entangle the world.
Sorry that I missed your calls.
But all I wanna do is throw the phone at the wall.
And how many times can you hear that sound.
Don't leave a message, I'm not around.
You know me.
I'm with you and I'm with you.
Dancing to your rhythm.
Understanding why, I can't tell you why.
I know I didn't stick to the plan.
I can tell you sorry but you know that I can't.
And I can tell you now there's a whole lot of sound going round in my head like a siren.
I'm going to the river tonight.
Running to the ocean for the turn of the tide.
Turn the tide.
Turn the tide.
Turn the tide.
You know me.
I'm with you and I'm with you.
Dancing to your rhythm.
Understanding why, I can't tell you why.
Don't wanna be a missing person.
I wanna be a better version.
But I don't wanna put the work in, no, no, no, no.
Wanna be a missing person.
Don't listen till my head stops turning.
Even though I know I deserve it.
You know me.
I'm with you and I'm with you.
Dancing to your rhythm.
Understanding why, I can't tell you why.
