Adult Play - Know It All

Sit with the imbalance
It's always so insular
Squinting at the buttons
Sending buzzing up your arm
Then you get that sinking feeling
Like you're not even real
Power off hours lost
Head was in too far

You were fixing your receivers
To a signal overseas
It's always intercepted
So you don't know what it means
In the glowing dark
Better connected to everything
Everyone
But you're always lonely

I've said so many times I don't get it
You're so heady and you know it already
But you get so heavy and difficult
When you're on your own

Said so many times I don't get it
You're so heady and you know it already
But you get so heavy and difficult
When you're on your own

If it's funny
Why does it hurt
You've got the money
But can't tell me what it's worth
You taste the poisoned
Flesh of the berry
Wet from the evening rain
Warm by the telly

There's so many performers
It never was your thing
Authentically awkward
But ready when the trouble starts
And you start questioning everything
Everyone
Saying the same old thing

Have you come to play or follow
I beg and borrow to be sold a feeling
But lost all the meaning
My controlled demeanour
Don't fool you either
You're too eager ha ha
You're too eager ha ha

As you stray from the beaten path
All expectations are at your back
Through thicket thought and wild mourning
Keep walking

I've said so many times I don't get it
You're so heady and you know it already
But you get so heavy and difficult
When you're on your own

Said so many times I don't get it
You're so heady and you know it already
But you get so heavy and difficult
When you're on your own

If it's funny
Why does it hurt
You've got the money
But can't tell me what it's worth
You taste the poisoned
Flesh of the berry
Wet from the evening rain
Warm by the telly

I've said so many times I don't get it
You're so heady
You know it already
