Upside Down

I've got pockets full of rocks

and twisted sleepy sheets

I don't know what to say -

I make death defying leaps

towards you everyday

until we're orbiting

I can almost here your thoughts

and see your missing angles

Don't go that way

you might fall in like a stone

Collect your doubts and set them on

the wet black bough

First kisses, near misses

teacher hisses "tell me what you've learned"

Everything I thought I wanted

in this world has got me turned

upside down

If these suburban stalls

we've made our own decisions

to break away and start again

with dirt and gravel

A circle has been broken

but another reappears

Its smaller but stronger than

it ever was before

Broken branches

see them shake your family tree

There's no new leaves

just petals on

the wet black bough

First kisses, near misses,

teacher hisses "tell me what we've learned?"

Everything I thought I wanted in this world

has got me turned

upside down (3x)

Don't go that way

you might sink in like a stone

Collect your doubt and set it on

a wet black bough

First kisses, near misses,

teacher hisses "tell me what we've learned?"

Everything I thought I wanted in this world

has got me turned

upside down (3x)
