Lyrics
[Verse 1]
In the afternoon
Yellow curtains drawn
Designed with comfort in mind
Glowering into the night light
[Verse 2]
Feel like letting go
Final resting place
The house cat knows when it's time
To enter another phase
[Verse 3]
But you look sad
In a reassuring way
And I don't want to leave
So we can both be the same
[Verse 4]
In the afternoon
Modern sovereignty
The sunlight stopped coming through
And we lost the game
[Verse 5]
Brains like nesting dolls
Plotting their escape
The doorman see's you're alone
He can't seem to find your name
[Verse 6]
With you, my friend
No problems can't be solved
They don't understand
And somehow it's all the same
And somehow it's all the same
And somehow it's all the same
And somehow it's all the same
[Verse 7]
Relief is like candy
The sweetest kind of love
Who'd guess I'd feel this way?
Like a kid in a candy store
A kid in a candy store
A kid in a candy store
A kid in a candy store
[Verse 8]
A kid in a candy store
A kid in a candy store
A kid in a candy store
A kid in a candy store
