lyrics

Give me time and I will learn the art
Of choosing my mind over my heart
Staring at the shadows all alone
Driven by the longing to go home

'Cause honestly
It feels so safe around you
It's unsettling

She don't know what it means but it doesn't matter
The fact is I can't forget her
All these Rorschach blots
bottles of scotch are driving me insane
In every single circumstance
We see things in a way that makes more sense
All these Rorschach blots
Bottles of scotch are messing with my brain

Build a wooden boat to sail away
From all the sins that haunt you everyday
As you drift there's nothing left to save
You say "Starlit ocean, you will be my grave"

And honestly
It feels so safe around you
It's unsettling

She don't know what it means but it doesn't matter
The fact is I can't forget her
All these Rorschach blots
bottles of scotch are driving me insane
In every single circumstance
We see things in a way that makes more sense
All these Rorschach blots
Bottles of scotch are messing with my brain

I don't know what it means but it doesn't matter
The fact is I can't forget her
All these Rorschach blots
bottles of scotch are driving me insane
In every single circumstance
We see things in a way that makes more sense
All these Rorschach blots
Bottles of scotch are messing with my brain

In every single circumstance
We see things in a way that makes more sense
In every single circumstance

We see things in a way that makes more sense
All these Rorschach blots
Bottles of scotch are messing with me
