Lyrics

How much can you ever give away?
Everything
How much can you ever really say?
Just say something
Is it best to be alone
Or in a League of Nations?
Do it yourself, keep it at home
Or listen to left luggage accusations
How big can you make it?
It's such a little thing
I know you can't forsake it
To you, it's everything now
Little in your eyes
Was calling out loud to the sky and the clouds and the sea
Hanging by a thread
The hopes of a lifetime spent crawling and scraping nowhere
Well, you better not smile 'cause I think that your face, it will crack
How many times can you look away
From the very thing?
How many times do you think that you can say
The same old things?
You wish upon a star
Well, you will wish on anything
Yes, wishing on a tinsel covered star
Hanging on a fraying string now
Something has to break
How can you believe when they've forced you to thief from yourself
Something in your smile
You know you're amazing but so self-effacing, yes
Well, you better not smile 'cause I think that your face, it will crack
I'm not gonna argue with you anymore
Because it makes me wild
I'm not gonna argue with you anymore
Because you're like a little child
You say, "Just you wait
I'll get you back, just you wait
You know that you can't get away with that, just you wait
This is civilised
You can't get away with that, just you wait
I'll get you back
You know that, you know that, you can't get away with that"
Something in your smile
Was calling out loud to the sky and the clouds and the sea
Something in your face
You know you're amazing, at least you're not crazy, yes
Well, what's it to you if all this is the truth
Just you wait
I'll get you back, just you wait
You can't get away with that, just you wait
This is civilised
You can't get away with that, just you wait
I'll get you back
