forever king clark
the lyrics - a nonexhaustive list

I’m done with the monotony
Of alway having to be
Don’t get me wrong this isn't the end
Just like to step out for a weekend
I need a vacation
I need a vacation from myself
From myself
From myself
From myself
From myself
My paranoid dreams fresh in bloom
The most hated one in the room
Thinking it through it can’t be true
But I can’t be sure unless I’m you
I need a vacation
I need a vacation
I need a vacation from myself
From myself
From myself
From myself
From myself
They said you lost your mind
Short sighted conclusions
But you’re being left behind
So much for delusions
Now you can’t get away
Now you can’t get away
Never get to Norway
Never get to Norway
All those tiny bottles
That they failed to hide
He barely cobbles
Way to put the doubts aside
Now you can’t get away
Now you can’t get away
Never get to Norway
Never get to Norway
Dreamed this since you were twelve
When you had barely met
You’d go with no one else
Yet you’d be the one left
Now you can’t get away
Now you can’t get away
Never get to Norway
Never get to Norway
Now you can’t get away
Now you can’t get away
Now you can’t get away
Now you can’t get away
You know I’ve been so afraid to fall in love again
But what chance I might have had has reached its end
You wished we could kiss at new year’s break
I lied and said I can’t reciprocate
Because every move that i make is just another deceit
Even if you're the kind of person that I would like to keep
You know I’ve been so afraid to fall in love again
But what chance I might have had has reached its end
I squirmed all during your apology
Still so so ashamed it wasnt me
Because every move that I make is just another deceit
Even if you're the kind of person that I would like to keep
You know I’ve been so afraid to fall in love again
But what chance I might have had has reached its end
You know I’ve been so afraid to fall in love again
But what chance I might have had has reached its end
Missed you at the party
Wait I wasn't there
Such a shame to remember
How you really don't care
Did I lose the invite
Vanished into thin air
Like all your other reminders
And unanswered prayers
You know I didn't see you
Last night at the show
Why did I waste time believing
You would actually go
Another lost evening
I can't replace
When I don't get to see you
See you face to face
So tired of hearing you lie
Everytime I really try
Perpetually denied
And I still don't know why
Didn't meet up this weekend
I can't remember the last
Must have been sometime
In the ancient past
When we used to be friends
I saw you all the time
Long before I stepped over
Your invisible line
So tired of hearing you lie
Everytime I really try
Perpetually denied
And I still don't know why
Missed you at the party
So tired of hearing you lie
Everytime I really try
Perpetually denied
And I still don't know why
Missed you at the party
One day I'd like to write a song
I don't crumple and throw away
Something with words I'd like to say
I'd excavate the ten cent words
I interred back in middle school
Make them see the light of day
I want to feel the way I did
About myself in second grade
So assured you can't persuade
Does anyone really know
Where all this went so wrong
When happiness became charade
I want to feel okay
I want to feel okay
I want to feel okay
I want to feel okay
I want to feel okay
I want to feel okay like I was in second grade
Oh Michael
Where did you go
I know you don't need me
But wish it didn't show
Cause in my dreams I never thought It'd come to this
Did you know how much you would be missed
Just tell me
What I did wrong
Is there any other way
We could just move on
Cause in my dreams I never thought It'd come to this
Did you know how much you would be missed
It's been five years
Since I saw your face
And in all of that time
You couldn't be replaced
Cause in my dreams I never thought It'd come to this
Did you know how much you would be missed
You said we'd be friends forever
