You cannot play this game
Feelings all on your face
Watching is still allowed
Looking down from your cloud
I cannot die for you
Even if you want
I cannot lie to you
‘Cause I don’t do it well
Hello hello from the start
Pick me apart, dig me up holes to climb in
All in all it’s what you seek
Wanting the best, knowing it’s me
But I know, oh, that you don’t do it well
But it’s gold, oh, underneath your shell
Watching me hesitate
Break into your estate
All the bones in the ground
Movement becomes the sound
It’s a modicum of life to you
Giant as you are
They’re coming up dry for you
They’re scratches on your car
Hello hello from the start
Pick me apart, dig me up holes to climb in
All in all it’s what you seek
Wanting the best, knowing it’s me
But I know (I know), oh, that you don’t do it well
But it’s gold (It’s gold), oh, underneath your shell
Hold me close, say my name
Find your home, in the fray
Love is like , open gates
On an island, in the game
Hello hello from the start
Pick me apart, dig me up holes to climb in
All in all it’s what you seek
Wanting the best, knowing it’s me (x2)
But I know, oh (Half of it) that you don’t do it well (Half of it)
But it’s gold (Half of it), oh, (Half of it, half of it) underneath your shell
You don’t know half of it, half of it
You don’t know half of it, half of it, half of it
