Finn McGowan - The Borderline

There's someone I want you to meet
He's kind of nice but I haven't seen him in weeks
And I'm sorry I'm not the person
That you want me to be
But just because you're crying
Doesn't mean I have to weep

I've been chased by demons
Through back alleys and darkened streets
You could say I'm walking
A boulevard of broken dreams
Stereotypical doesn't suit me
After all of the bait that you threw me
I'm still alive

So don't abandon me while I still breathe
'Cause I chose love over misery
All the seams break equally
When you pull them under the apple tree
You're far behind you're lost in time
But we ain't even crossed the borderline
Don't you see that this is me
So take it or leave me be

There's something I wanted to say
But my life ambitions got in the way
I'm nobody's scapegoat and I don't wanna be
So hold me out the window
Whilst I scream

I've been chased by demons
Through back alleys and darkened streets
You could say I'm walking
A boulevard of broken dreams
I don't know where I'll go
Before the end of the world but
I know you're not in control

So don't abandon me while I still breathe
'Cause I chose love over misery
All the seams break equally
When you pull them under the apple tree
You're far behind you're lost in time
But we ain't even crossed the borderline
Don't you see that this is me
So take it or leave me be
So take it or leave me be
