We Prefer Indoors

(album: Figure - 2020)

It's a good thing I was there to finish your thought
You're an attack in black. Some red flags at half-mast
You know, I'm not the same as the bore you brought around before
I don't deserve that resentment

Leave
Take off before you're seen
Disappear
Get lost before you're seen
Or we'll hit a wall
We'll hit a wall

At early-ages we are taught to explore
Now we just stare at the floor
An open window, an endless stretch of time outside
Yet we prefer indoors

Leave
Take off before you're seen
Disappear
Get lost before you're seen
Please leave
Take off before you're seen
Disappear
Get lost before you're seen
Or we'll hit a wall
We'll hit a wall

We've hit a wall

A king, a queen and convenience
A beginners guide to annoyance
May our lonely hearts be free
Because an option for the optionless is me
But, you're a lease, a leash or some distance
And I've heard it all
A path of most resistance

Please leave
Take off before you're seen
Disappear
Get lost before you're seen

Please leave
Take off before you're seen
Disappear
Get lost before you're seen
Or we'll hit a wall
We'll hit a wall

Please leave
Take off before you're seen
Disappear
Get lost before you're seen
We've hit a wall
