boredom in my head

oh you are in my head
I saw you in my nightmare
oh
I think I need some time
oh you are in my head
I saw you in my dream
oh
I think I need some time to think
...
from the start you always were
but I didn't notice or care
until it was finally
conveinent for me
I'm not that easily swayed
by the games you play
you're gonna have to do
better that than if you
once & again we will, oh
once again I will pretend
once again you won't be there, no
and I will somehow not care
I'm not that easily swayed
by the dark games you play
I'm not so easily impressed
by your wildness
oh you are in my head
I saw you in my dream
I think I need some time to think
I'm not that easily swayed
by the games you play
don't you have somewhere to be?
what could you even want with me?

I never planned on
wanting nobody like you
I never wanted
to hurt nobody
but here I sit
in between two
my heart broken
but I know the truth
can you tell me which way to go?
I don't want to decide, I just want to know
are you gonna be the one for me
are you even worth anything
don't you gotta be somewhere
is this worth everything I know and love
can you tell me which way to go?
I don't want to decide, I just want to know
can you please tell me what to do?
I don't know how I'm gonna choose
ooh save me from
this temptation
I don't know why I can't just let it go
don't know why I can't leave well enough alone
but here I sit
my heart an open wound
but I know that you feel it too
can you please tell me which way to go?
can you please tell me which way's my heart?
please just give me a little sign
I don't know what to do
I don't know what to do
I don't know what to do
I don't know what to do

big idea

you say don't wait for me
I'm always late anyway
you say don't worry dear
it's only a headache
and I don't know where you get these big ideas
you say it's not my time
to be concerned with you, your life
you say go on and give up
expecting anything more or less
you don't get anywhere just daydreaming
lord this empty
is so very heavy
on my mind
thought of letting go
you say it's not my time
to be seen or heard
but I've tired of being a medal
you wear around your neck
it's your facade and I am not interested
in being part of it anymore
perfection only gets you deeper in debt
lord this empty
is so very heavy
on my mind
thought of letting go
no I don't know
where you get these
big ideas

tell me what to
expect from you
I don't give up
too easily
oh I don't need you
& I don't need me, too
I only ever wanted you
to want me, too
what do I even
know about you?
tell me what do I
know about myself?
oh and I don't want you
& I don't want me, too
I only wanted you
to need me too
trouble everywhere
but I don't believe it's there
tension in the air
but I don't believe it's there
oh I do want you
& I think that you want me, too
& I only ever wanted you
to need me too

double negative

nothing blocks the way
quite like a smile
nothing is real
but we love to pretend
nobody knows anything
why do the lessons have to come this way
nothing sets the past
in forward motion
nothing brings back
all that we've lost
(or who we loved)
nobody knows anything
why do the lessons have to come this way
nobody even cares anymore
why do the ones we love go through so much pain
oh...
nobody ever said
forever's better
in your head
the lion
the wicked
the disappearing ones
never
coming
home
