The Last Cosmonaut - Please Excuse Me Lyrics

Please excuse me
You remind me of someone I know
Someone I cared for
From so long ago
Move on to a new town
Leave the past behind, settle down
Try to forget
Try to forget

Please excuse me
You remind me
Of someone I know
You could be them
I could be someone from home
However much you paint your face
The rains will come
Your mask will slide
You can't hold back what's inside

You can't fight what is inside
Pulling your heart, the moon on the tides
Always returning
Yearning to burn as you fall into the sun
Don't you realise
I'm on your side
I always have been
I always will be

Please excuse me
You remind me of someone I know
You couldn't be them
Even if you wanted to
You can paint me as a fool
Make them believe it's all my fault
But that's not true
And it's cruel , so cruel

You can't fight what is inside
Pulling your heart
The moon on the tides
Always returning
Yearning to burn as you fall into the sun
Don't you realise
I'm on your side
I always have been
I always will be
Even if you don't want me there
Don't you realise?
