Lyrics
Pedals from a Casablanca lilly,
Sliding slowly through your fragile hands
You're standing at your window looking silly
Contemplating all those prior plans
You know not what it was that brought you here now
Redirected you again somehow, somehow
All those reasons that were wrong now find safety down in a song
All those reasons that were wrong...
Fresh start now you got yourself a new day
But you carry on with your routine
You're idle once again at your window
Hoping none of this will ever show
And you wrap yourself in poems by Dylan Thomas
As you make yourself one more promise, another promise
All those reasons that were wrong now find safety down in a song
All those reasons that were wrong...
A fleeting sense of confidence
The accompanying consequence
It's tearing you, tearing you down now
Memories of your future plans and lacking all attention span,
It's tearing you, tearing you down now
All those reasons that were wrong, now find safety down in a song
All those reasons that were wrong
All those reasons that were wrong...
