Self - Flip-Top Box lyrics

rate me

Flip-Top Box, nail and lock me under

All I ask is for 3 minutes of time

And I know you don't mind

Flip-Top Box, show a feeling

I'm defenseless, I'm so nervous kissing you

I tell myself that I'm bold and bigger, I'm such a liar

From the darkness comes the light

Stopping slowly short of nothing

Crying wait, wait - now you're alone

An obsession overblown

An addiction all too familiar

Crying wait, wait - now you're alone

Flip-Top Box, some claim you Jesus

But we'll all meet him soon enough

Introduce your homosexual friends

I know better now

I don't need you hangin' out

Cause you smell like shit

And 10 dead cowboys would agree

I tell myself I'm not cold or bitter

I'm such a liar

From your past here comes your prime

Your behaviours unsatisfactory

Crying wait, wait - now you're alone

Beyond excuses in your head

An addiction all too familiar

Crying wait, wait - Now you're alone

I'm a fool I suppose

It's what inside that matters most

I'll be better off alone

Flip-Top Box, I'm James Dean if you say so

Punch drunk in my halo

Spinning upwards towards the roof

Flip-Top Box, show a feeling

I'm defenseless, I'm so nervous kissing you

I appoint myself so cool and clever

I'm such a liar

From the darkness comes the light

Stopping slowly short of nothing

Crying wait, wait

Crying wait, wait

Crying wait, wait - now you're alone
