lyrics

Does the man playing Wham! also have the blues?
When you've got insomnia why press the snooze?
My head feels like it's full of crossword clues
And in each across and down I fill the space with you
It's hard to find the time to do much else
I pick up War and Peace and put it back on the shelf
Watch half a documentary on mental health
And then I turn it off so I can talk to myself

Because romancing has become my new pastime
And I've made this whole narrative in my mind
In which you turn this urban void to luscious fields
It's a nice hobby when you know that it's not real

'Continue to exist' is on the list to do
Because nothing gets ticked when I think of you
While panelists on Question Time argue
I'm floating on a planet with a different view
Is the neighbour five flights through the window pane
Washing up trying to find a higher plane?
And can they see me going quietly insane?
Trying to find a window into your brain
