Superficial Feeling - Written Years

Turn the lights down now, I am all worked up

Try to shake it out, play the part

And there’s a kind, kind of quiet now

There’s a kind, kind of quiet now

‘Til we are cut in thirds on a restaurant stage

Where the ribbon girls spin and I

Am caving down, a kind of quiet now

There’s a kind, kind of

I am here, wide awake, help me into the car

I don’t want you to dance all alone in the dark

Even if it is all just a sick superficial feeling

(Superficial feeling, feeling)

I am lit, half asleep, throwing darts at the mirror

I am shaking right now like I shouldn’t be here

Even if it appears as a sick superficial feeling

(Superficial feeling, feeling)

I’ll wait a breath then take something to calm down

Bury my mistakes, spill it all

And there’s a kind, kind of quiet now

There’s a kind, kind of quiet now

So kiss me darling, I’ve been asleep too long

I can stand up right, clear my head

And it’s all a kind of quiet now

There’s a kind, kind of

I am here, wide awake, help me into the car

I don’t want you to dance all alone in the dark

Even if it is all just a sick superficial feeling

(Superficial feeling, feeling)

I am lit, half asleep, throwing darts at the mirror

I am shaking right now like I shouldn’t be here

Even if it appears as a sick superficial feeling

(Superficial feeling, feeling)

I know it’s in our blood, this city will break our hearts, love

I know it’s in our blood, hit the lights and get it all out

I know it’s in our blood, this city will break our hearts, love

I know it’s in our blood

I am here, wide awake, help me into the car

I don’t want you to dance as you’re falling apart

Even if it is all just a sick superficial feeling

(Superficial feeling, feeling)

Shake it out, just shake it out, just shake it out now

Shake it out, just shake it out, just shake it out now

Shake it out, just shake it out, just shake it out now

Shake it out, just shake it out, just shake it out now
