lyrics

I don’t know how to express myself
I don’t know how to leave
I once had these
Confidence, self esteem
No longer
On the shelf my wants and needs
It’s back to Harley Street
Always out of reach
Always out of reach

When there’s nothing left
We’ve passed the test

Why don’t we fall apart
Why don’t we fall apart
Why don’t we open up
Why don’t we fall apart
Why don’t we open up
Why don’t we fall apart

Let’s do it again tomorrow
More or less in love
The witness is awake
Don’t slip on your tears
A good longing
The construction of nostalgia
Non fiction
Always out of reach
Always out of reach

When there’s nothing left
We’ve passed the test

Why don’t we fall apart
Why don’t we fall apart
Why don’t we open up
Why don’t we fall apart
Why don’t we open up
Why don’t we fall apart

It was all a dream
A fantasy
We were messed up independently
After all
Explore how we hurt ourselves
Did you wish you were someone else
Someone new and exciting
To take you out of yourself
One more time
Please one more time
Release me from responsibility
I’m glad I stayed
Always out of reach
Always out of reach

When there’s nothing left
We’ve passed the test
