Lyrics

Turning myself against all your friends I try to feign interest, but I just can't pretend We go out at night At least you do, I decline most of the time And you can't understand why Well it feels like I'm watching you from the other side of this life I'm letting you slip away Well it feels like I'm watching you from the other side of this life I'm letting you slip away You mutter on about another scuppered opportunity to hold hands in public Well I have to say I really don't understand What's your problem? Placing immediate importance on social media performance Am I expected to post that I love your beans on toast the most? I don't! I'm tired of making promises that I will never keep In a battle of empty sentiments, I beat a hasty retreat There was a kindness in your heart There was a wisdom to impart Now by and large you're in charge And you're pulling everything apart Well it feels like I'm watching you from the other side of this life Well it feels like I'm watching you from the other side of this life I'm letting you slip away Getting it all wrong time and time again I long to inspect, to correct, to ammend for the next time Then again I put my foot in my mouth I never seem to sort it out Now we're both looking for a way out Well it feels like I'm watching you from the other side of this life Well it feels like I'm watching you from the other side of this life I'm letting you slip away It feels like I'm watching you [x3]
