Lucy Kruger & The Lost Boys - Feedback Hounds

I want to be seen
But I don't want to show
I'm not willing to go there
Not willing to go
I preach that it's good to be alone
But what do I know

I'm lonely
But I've been calling it learning
And it's only
That I'm quietly burning

So bring me friends to kiss my mouth
Skin to soothe the feedback hounds
That echo through this human house
Deafeningly loud
And I too proud to let them out
To play with the kids in town

I wanna sing to woo you
I wanna sing really fucking well to fool you
Into thinking I'm free
That I've both very crisp and very love soaked sheets
I'm a cheat
I'm a child
I'm a charlatan
I'm shy and I'm shit and I'm caving in
And I don't want you here to see this how this ends
I'm a coward
I vandalised a map
And I buried it in song
And I don't know if it was right
Or very very wrong
And I don't know what happens
If you play along
And I don't want to lose you
But I'm not gonna win
Cause I can't seem to grasp
That it's not a competition

I'm lonely
But I've been calling it learning
And it's only
That I'm quietly burning

So bring me friends to kiss my mouth
Skin to soothe the feedback hounds
That echo through this human house
Deafeningly loud
And I too proud to let them out
To play with the kids in town
