You tear me down in the nicest way
With melancholy shades of grey
Re-make me who I want to be and I'll
Dream of fires re-kindled
I've been waiting so long
Watching myself
Changing into what i don't want to be
I thought I was romantic
But now it seems
That i've rationalised my way out of that
Always been a sucker
For what could have been
For the lost opportunity
The screens that we all worship
They all tell me
Don't settle for less than perfect
You've been on the periphery
Of my vision
My mind running in circles trying to find your
Beauty filled with flawless imperfection
You are the ultimate distraction
I've been setting bars high so they all fail
But you waltz around do a two-step
Through my mind and you fill it
With hopeless hope that I haven't seen in so long
You tear me down in the nicest way
With melancholy shades of grey
Re-make me who I want to be and I'll
Dream of fires re-kindled
Here is my postcard to being alive
A flash of light to chase before it fades away
As you unfold your wings and fly off
To get the ground off your itchy feet
I'm being moved by something I can't control
How refreshing to be vulnerable
This childlike innocence or something else that
I lost not too long ago
You tear me down in the nicest way
With melancholy shades of grey
Re-make me who I want to be and I'll
Dream of fires re-kindled
You tear me down in the nicest way
With melancholy shades of grey
Re-make me who I want to be and I'll
Dream of fires re-kindled
