lyrics

A certain sense of insecurity
A certain kind of vulnerability
A certain sense of instability
They're calling from the farmland to me
Calling me to come home again
Stuck trying to fight this fear inside
But it occupies my time now

Just like a jacked psycho, I regress
I've built my own padded room, this summer
I'm just like an old man who forgets
Whistling the same old tune

The same old song

Curling up like a ball
Running the warmest bath
Slipping on your safest slippers
Let's a sleepwalk back now

This metamorphosis frightens me
So I'm locked in my cocoon, and there's no room
I'm just like an old man who forgets
Whistling the same old tune

It's all about bluffing
Gotta padlock your heart
And a small voice says:
"Gotta make a brand new start"

On your own
Find god
On your own
Gotta make a brand new start
