Lyrics
Shake it up is all that we know
Using the bodies up as we go
I'm waking up to fantasy
The shades all around aren't the colors we used to see
Broken ice still melts in the sun
And ties that are broken can often be one again
We're soul alone and soul really matters to me
Take a look around
You're out of touch, I'm out of time
But I'm out of my head when you're not around
You're out of touch, I'm out of time
But I'm out of my head when you're not around
Reaching out for something to hold
Looking for a love where the climate is cold
Manic moves and drowsy dreams
Or living in the middle between the two extremes
Smoking guns, hot to the touch
Would cool down if we didn't use them so much, yeah
We're soul alone and soul really matters to me
Too much
You're out of touch, I'm out of time
But I'm out of my head when you're not around
You're out of touch, I'm out of time
But I'm out of my head when you're not around
Out of touch
Out of touch
Out of touch
Out of touch
You're out of touch, I'm out of time
But I'm out of my head when you're not around
You're out of touch
I'm out of time
Time, but I'm out of my head when you're not around
You're out of touch, I'm out of time
For so long, girl
But I'm out of my head when you're not around
Not around
You're out of touch, I'm out of time
Out of time, out of time, out of time, out of time, girl
But I'm out of my head when you're not around
You're out of touch
Reach out for something to hold
Time, but I'm out of my head when you're not around
Too cold, girl, too cold, girl
You're out of touch, I'm out of time
Too cold, girl
Not around
You're out of touch, I'm out of time
Out of touch, out of time, out of touch, out of time
But I'm out of my head when you're not around
Out of touch, out of time, girl
You're out of touch
Yeah, I'm out of time
Time, but I'm out of my head when you're not around
You're out of touch, I'm out of time
Broken ice still melts in the sun
