lyrics

come on look me in the eyes
come on take me by surprise
i am hungry
don't turn around don't let me down
i am angry settle me down

for your soda I stand in line
you're a waterhole in bright sunshine
i am thirsty
hustling by hardly alive
pity this nomad don’t leave me dry

too queasy my dear
we just can't get anywhere
too easily scared
what with all those faces we wear

i get closer and touch cold glass
faces in mirrors are not made to last
i am sleeping
you wake me up I hear you laugh
i am sheepishly deeply in love

too queasy my dear
we just can't get anywhere
too easily scared
what with all those faces we wear
too queasy my dear
we just can't get anywhere

agonising tantalising - so queasy
mesmerising magnetising - so queasy
