I watch from my spot on the wall
I've learned to prepare for a fall
They're all around, to fate we're bound
I knew that you'd come to call
Now and again, I break free
Now and again, just for me
I'm still a case, don't replace
I'm not how I used to be
When I was younger I'd find a remedy and hide for days
I'd be lost in a melody, the world would just melt away
Now I wander around like I'm haunted
Is this really what you wanted to see?
So much I need to conceal
So much has now been revealed
Conformity, socially
I guess that's part of the deal
Is it just the way I came off?
Or too strong a pill makes you soft?
Summer days and Beaujolais
When I get this straight jacket off
When I was younger I'd find a remedy and hide for days
(Getting out was on the mind then, it was all about finding a way)
I'd be lost in a melody, the world would just melt away
(The further we travel, life will unravel)
We were hanging around, waiting for ourselves
And always looking for a chance to prove it to them
(Always seeking their approval up until their removal)
Now I wander around like I'm haunted
Is this really how you want it to be?
No more disputes 'cause I'm done
I've lost more of those than I've won
My sunny day, my Beau-Soleil
I've always known you're the one
When I was younger I'd find a remedy and hide for days
(Getting out was on the mind then, it was all about finding a way)
I'd be lost in a melody, the world would just melt away
(The further we travel, life will unravel)
We were hanging around, waiting for ourselves
And always looking for a chance to prove it to them
(Always seeking their approval up until their removal)
Now you wander around like you're haunted
And that's just something I cannot bear to see
