Selfsame Lyrics by Mobley

Fresh Lies, Vol. 1

2018

Now I've done what you asked me
Will you stay?
Now I've done as you asked me
Can I stay here?

You know I never want to see
Never want to see you alone again
Because I never want to be
Never want to see me alone

I was born with my eyes wide open
And I won't start hoping on a star right now
You try to tempt me with your store-bought passion
But your forethought flashes in the dark
Somehow we hurt each other for the selfsame reasons
There's a sad, strange treason in the heart
And you say you will, but you know you'll never move from where you are

I was young and un-emptied
Unafraid
I was young and you bent me
To your way here
I get the feeling that you're not feeling that you've got me alone again
And if you're feeling that I'm not feeling it, I'm not coming home

I was born with my eyes wide open
And I won't start hoping on a star right now
You try to tempt me with your store-bought passion
But your forethought flashes in the dark
Somehow we hurt each other for the selfsame reasons
There's a sad, strange treason in the heart
And you say you will, but you know you'll never move from where you are

She's a downhearted dancer
But she taught me a lesson
Because if we are the answer
Then you've asked the wrong question
