Pulling Levers

(album: Hot Hot Heat - 2016)

Pick up all your clothes
Pack up all you know
Toss away the o-o-old
Chase that fool's go-o-old

It's the same little girl that I recognize
But someone's been pulling levers behind those eyes

You can say what you want
Or walk back to the sun
We're a million miles apart
We're a million miles apart
We're a million miles apart

You're riding your life like a story
But nobody's reading it
Caught of your ties like a switchblade
And never said sorry

You can say what you want
Or walk back to the sun
We're a million miles apart
We're a million miles apart
We're a million miles apart

The city is way too small for me to have a nemesis
And I'm way too small to want to go and make the best of it
Call me too fragile
I'll call you too stupid
You don't even what you're gonna be losing
Sometimes when you're drinking
You say what you're thinking
So let me go, I have to apologize, and more
Sometimes when I'm thinking
I know why you're sinking
Too little too late!
Too little too late!
Too little too late!

You can say what you want
Or walk back to the sun
We're a million miles apart
We're a million miles apart
We're a million miles apart
