lyrics

Just for your record
It's not your fault that
I'm not all there
Yet nor are you
True, is it true?

I'm a wizard
I'm a cowering fool
I'm a failure
I'm the one that
Just can't, get out
This mindset causes doubt
And it's hard to defy
A pain that sticks, it binds

But we could run
To the forest
Skip along the moors
Catch a jet plane
Over mountains
Fly across the seas
Flying solo
To a village
In a new country

It's doing my head in
It's doing my head in
It's doing my head in
It's doing my head in
Bolt for the rest-room

Staring out my fears
To defend my soul
To examine here
You'll find it takes it's toll
Mirages manifold
You think we're on a roll
Just get behind the wheel
You'll see just how we feel
It's not too clear
You got to take it slow
To get on [the horse] again
You got to take it slow
Well it's so
I'm walking on tip-toes
Well it's so...
