Lyrics Better Leave Soon - The Ocean Party

Better Leave Soon

Pass the shops on the way in
I’m defined by what I bought and what I didn’t
Catch a reflection of myself, I’m gorgeous
Across the train aisle, I pull a half-smile
I’m dead to everything else
I’m dead to everything else
Yeah, I think I better leave soon
Yeah, I think I better leave soon
Yeah, I think I better leave soon
Get a load o' this one
Says he’s crackin' up from the hair down
«Everything's connected,» he says
I’m dead to everything else
Self-editin' a private hell
Yeah, I think I better leave soon
Yeah, I think I better leave soon
Yeah, I think I better leave soon
Back at home in the meantime
I imagine you pacin' the room
Spittin' outtakes of conversation that didn’t make the cut
I’m dead to everything else
I was cuttin' you out and I was up myself
You don’t exist outside
But you can’t stand within
I’m not myself, I’m not myself
You don’t exist outside
But you can’t stand within
I’m not myself, I’m not myself
You don’t exist outside
But you can’t stand within
I’m tryin' to get out while I still can
I’m tryin' to get out while I still can
I’m tryin' to get out while I still can
I’m not clever enough to pull the world through this
Nothin' ever got solved at three in the mornin'
It’s all hot air and bluster and showin' off
Let’s just all get our dicks out and see if we’re so bothered by
Pourin' all the energy into screens
Burnin' up the air, drivin' litres a day
My head is spinnin', I’m standin' on an icecap
Revellin' in my own conclusion and it’s fucked
I’m tryin' to get out while I still can
I’m tryin' to get out while I still can
I’m tryin' to get out while I still can
I’m tryin' to get out while I still can
