lyrics

Why do we always wonder what's in store
I don't wanna focus on the details anymore
Of course our sun shall set
Hope it hasn't yet

But I'm better off avoiding the question
My back turned to it all

Maybe tomorrow I'll turn the headlights on
But I'm so forgetful and follow with ease
Need to spend some more time outside
I haven't been feeling alright

What are you hiding
You lie through your teeth
But your world is you
And my world is me
Let's just promise one thing
That we won't get killed by curiosity

Does it lure you in
While you go to work another 9 to 5 again
Beneath your demeanor of subtle regret
Lies all of the things that you've never said

Are you convinced that it's better unheard
Or are you the martyr of all of your swallowed words

Well maybe tomorrow I'll turn the headlights on
But I'm so forgetful and follow with ease
We could spend some more time outside
But have you been feeling alright

What are you hiding
I thought we'd agreed
That your world is you
And my world is me
When we promised one thing
That we won't get killed by curiosity
No we won't get killed by curiosity

I haven't been feeling alright
What are you hiding
I thought we'd agreed
That your world is you
And my world is me
When we promised one thing
That we won't get killed by curiosity
No we won't get killed by curiosity
