Complicated

(album: Additional Futures - 2019)

Complicated
She says the future is overrated
On the very first morning we woke up
She tells me, "No getting your hopes up"

She's so hard and she's so tough
She's so cold to the touch but
Underneath the ice I see fire

'Cause it wasn't a dream
I heard when you said it, oh
You know that I wasn't asleep
I heard when you said it, oh

She, she don't do crowded
Says her life used to be sweet
But she soured it
She tells me there's no secret door
No secret smile
No secret passageway but
But I've found it

When I need more she gives me less
She's so hard to impress but
Underneath the ice I see fire

'Cause it wasn't a dream
I heard when you said it, oh
You know that I wasn't asleep
I heard when you said it, oh
And I will leave it alone
I know you'll deny it, oh
I'm keeping my feet on the ground
But instead I'm flying
Oh, oh, oh

Some songs are dreams
Some songs are plans
Some songs are lies
You never knew you meant
Oh-oh-oh
Some come in third
And are never heard
Some change the world
And some just pay the rent
They pay the rent

No way to say
No way to say
No telling what
This song is meant to be
Is meant to be, oh
I want you to know
Want you to know
Need you to know
Your secret's safe with me

Complicated
She's complicated

'Cause it wasn't a dream
I heard when you said it, oh
You know that I wasn't asleep
I heard when you said it, oh
And I will leave it alone
I know you'll deny it, oh
I'm keeping my feet on the ground
But instead I'm flying, flying, flying
Flying, flying, flying, flying, flying, flying

And I will leave it alone
I know you'll deny it, oh
I'm keeping my feet on the ground
But instead I'm flying, oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh
