I'm flustered
I'm passive

I'm doing handstands in my head

Yes, take a good look at me
Five seconds, now look away

Are you looking away?
Are you seeing the other way?
I can't tell

I am dreamlike
In a stance

Is that you calling me?
Is that my name ringing in my ear?
I can't tell

Don't touch me
Leave me be

Let me dive in your money
Let me lounge beneath your pool

This time, is my time

Maybe next time
I'll see the rare shade in you
Maybe next time
I'll get a glimpse of that colour in blue

But this time
Oh, I've failed you this time

I've crossed the ten centimeters gap beyond the line

Yesterday
I cared for you

Today
I am elsewhere

Today
The liquor's gone to my head

Do I look like I care?
