The Saboteur

 

Shall we meet in the cut
Swap coats and hopes until we both come up
Ditch the others like we used to

This new world can wait
I think I’ll seize another day
And I’ll do better in my own time

Not going to change my mind
I’m already halfway there
Not going to change my mind
I’m already gone

When the peaks get a little too low
You just know

Gripped to the past til our fingers bleed
Habit of a century
We’re going to turn this thing round like you wouldn’t believe
I’m the saboteur of a future me
Leave me in a reverie
I’m going to turn this thing round like you wouldn’t believe

And your guru tries to help
Keeps telling me to love myself
But he can’t stand me either

Seeped in sepia tones of yesterday
Soaked in the comfort our old mistakes
We say “it was better, it was better in our day”

Not going to change my mind
I’m already halfway there
Not going to change my mind
I’m already gone

Coz when the peaks get a little too low
You just know

Gripped to the past til our fingers bleed
Habit of a century
We’re going to turn this thing round like you wouldn’t believe
I’m the saboteur of a future me
Leave me in a reverie
I’m going to turn this thing round like you wouldn’t believe

And when the peaks get a little too low you just know
You just know
You just know
You just know
