forgiving yourself
takes hours of training for you
going downstairs
and no one noticed you left the room
cos there's a young man's sorrow
and then there's this version of you
why am i so down
hearing all of their moves
(chorus)
and it's a windows down day
and i can't see the good in you
and you begged me to stay
but it's only cos the rest of you's blue
i'm singing for my supper
in the strangest dream
i lost all my money
on this narcisist's scheme
when there's talk of something better
i hope you're not away
forgiving myself
takes hours of framing for you
convinced it's all in
you can't see how i should leave the room
cos there's a young man's burden
since he stopped his burning for you
of course it brings you down
hearing all of our moves
(chorus)
and it's a windows down day
and i can't see the good in you
and you begged me to stay
but it's only cos the rest of you's blue
i'm singing for my supper
in the strangest dream
i lost all my money
on this narcisist's scheme
when there's talk of something better
i hope you're not away
i hope you're not away
(interlude)
(chorus)
and it's a windows down day
and i can't see the good in you
and you have begged me to stay
but it's only cos the rest of you's bruised
i'm waiting on the summer
in the strangest dream
i lost all my money
don't you ask where i've been
when there's talk of someone better
don't you beg me to stay
