Lyrics
Got possessed by a demon last night by the name of drink Used my mouth to say things I don't even think And I woke up in a muddle, you've no interest in a cuddle There's a little brittle sadness in your eye And I know once again I've hurt you, and once again I don't know why I protest innocence and ignorance of all the things I've said And you say, "It must come from somewhere, it must live inside your head" Explanations and excuses, while they have their uses They can't fill the void I've made and though I try The truth is that I've hurt you, and once again I don't know why And it's not so much of an apology As admission of confused reverse psychology On the days when I can't keep my insecurities at bay I'll push you and I'll push you and I'll push you and I'll pray that you will stay And these words the morning after they don't seem to have the weight Of the words that escaped me last night after a drink or eight As if I was on a mission to change beyond recognition And I know it's true I have no alibi All I know is that I've hurt you, and once again I don't know why And these words they are elusive when I try to make them real The things you brought into my life, the way you've made me feel A world ablaze with colours, comfort, fires I can't deny No, I never mean to hurt you, darling. Truth is I would rather die And it's not so much of an apology As admission of confused reverse psychology That on the days that I can't keep my insecurities at bay I'll push you and I'll push you and I'll push you and I'll pray that you will stay On the days that I can't keep my insecurities at bay I will push you and I'll push you and I'll push you and I'll pray that you will stay *humming* On the days that I can't keep my insecurities at bay I will push you and I'll push you and I'll push you away On the days that I can't keep my insecurities at bay I will push you and I'll push you and I'll push you and I'll pray that you will stay Oh, I'll push you and I'll push you and I'll push you and I'll pray that you will stay I'll push you and I'll push you and I'll push you and I'll pray that you will stay
