We're interrupted by the heat of the sun
 Trying to prevent what's already begun
 You're just a body, I can smell your skin
 And when I feel it...
 But I've got a plan
 Why don't you be the artist and make me out of clay?
 Why don't you be the writer and decide the words I say?
 'Cause I'd rather pretend I'll still be there at the end
 Only it's too hard to ask, won't you try to help me?
 Sat on your sofa, it's all broken springs
 This isn't the place for those violin strings
 I try out a smile and I aim it at you
 You must have missed it
 You always do
 You wait, I wait, casting shadows, interrupted
 You wait, I wait, casting shadows, interrupted
 You wait, I wait, casting shadows, interrupted
 You wait, I wait, casting shadows
 Why don't you be the artist and make me out of clay?
 Why don't you be the writer and decide the words I say?
 'Cause I'd rather pretend I'll still be there at the end
 Only it's too hard to ask, won't you try to help me
 Sat on your sofa, it's all broken springs
 This isn't the place for those violin strings
 I try out a smile and I aim it at you
 You must have missed it
 You always do
