Idiot

(album: Strange Is Beautiful - 2018)

I was dancing like an idiot, that was hanging from a string
And the hands above they moved me where they thought that I should be
I remember when I met you, how I wished that I was free
You said don't be such an idiot, cut your strings and come with me

I was shaking like an idiot, found myself up on a wire
I was crying out for anyone to come save me from the fire
Standing in the smoking ashes, my whole world came undone
You were all that I was thinking of, all that I was thinking of

So if I can find the words
To light back up your eyes

Will you come around, will you come around
Like you always come around
Without you, you should know
I'm more lost than I am found
Beneath the cardboard trees
Anchored to the paper ground
The things are barely buried
They are digging their way out

And I need you now
I need you now
I need you now
I need you

I was screaming like an idiot, [?] look in here
I was screaming for a savior and you showed up my deer
And I don't begin to understand the things that you believe
I know that I am better off when you were here with me

So if I can find the words
To light back up your eyes

Will you come around, come around
Would you always come around
Without you, you should know
I'm more lost than I am found
Beneath the cardboard trees
Anchored to the paper ground
The things are barely buried
They are digging their way out

And I need you now
I need you now
I need you now
I need you

I know that I am better off when you are here with me
I know that I am better off when you are here with me
I know that I am better off when you are here with me
I know that I am better off when you are here with me

So would you come around, come around
Would you always come around
Without you, you should know
I'm more lost than I am found
Beneath the cardboard trees
Anchored to the paper ground
The things are barely buried
They are digging their way out

And I need you now
I need you now
I need you now
I need you
I need you now
