Better Leave Soon - The Ocean Party

Pass the shops on the way in

I’m defined by what I bought and what I didn’t

Catch a reflection of myself, I’m gorgeous

Across the train aisle, I pull a half-smile

I’m dead to everything else

I’m dead to everything else

Yeah, I think I better leave soon

Yeah, I think I better leave soon

Yeah, I think I better leave soon

Get a load o' this one

Says he’s crackin' up from the hair down

«Everything's connected,» he says

I’m dead to everything else

Self-editin' a private hell

Yeah, I think I better leave soon

Yeah, I think I better leave soon

Yeah, I think I better leave soon

Back at home in the meantime

I imagine you pacin' the room

Spittin' outtakes of conversation that didn’t make the cut

I’m dead to everything else

I was cuttin' you out and I was up myself

You don’t exist outside

But you can’t stand within

I’m not myself, I’m not myself

You don’t exist outside

But you can’t stand within

I’m not myself, I’m not myself

You don’t exist outside

But you can’t stand within

I’m tryin' to get out while I still can

I’m tryin' to get out while I still can

I’m tryin' to get out while I still can

I’m not clever enough to pull the world through this

Nothin' ever got solved at three in the mornin'

It’s all hot air and bluster and showin' off

Let’s just all get our dicks out and see if we’re so bothered by

Pourin' all the energy into screens

Burnin' up the air, drivin' litres a day

My head is spinnin', I’m standin' on an icecap

Revellin' in my own conclusion and it’s fucked

I’m tryin' to get out while I still can

I’m tryin' to get out while I still can

I’m tryin' to get out while I still can

I’m tryin' to get out while I still can
