lyrics

Like a joey in the headlights
I've been jumping back and forth
Never knowing where I'll end up
Always expecting that I'll fall
Don't follow me too closely
I might still be in love
Don't let me feel the comfort
I'm afraid that I won't run

There's nothing quite like someone
Who knows what they want
Even better when someone
Knows what they've got
Everywhere there's indecision
I've waited here before
Back to where I started
A different wave on the same shore

I've been taking too long to uncover my ears
I've been waiting too long to face all of these fears
We've been talking too much and holding back on our tears
And now I can't hear, I can't hear
Now I can't hear, I can't hear

It was dark at the pavilion
When we watched Olympia
I was drunk and I got told off
I didn't see them sitting there
I should've told you that I can't see
Should've told you that I'm blind
Should've told you that I can't tell
When I'm taken for a ride

I've been taking too long to uncover my ears
I've been waiting too long to face all of these fears
We've been talking too much and holding back on our tears
And now I can't hear, I can't hear
Now I can't hear, I can't hear

Now I know what people mean
When they say they can't swim
Now I know how people feel
When they can't swim
