Lyrics

Creeping round my house at dawn

Feeling wary and cautious about someone's presence around the house early in the morning

I'll keep my curtains closed

Intentionally keeping the curtains closed, possibly to avoid being seen or to maintain privacy

If you're feeling fond of feeling wrong

Suggesting a tendency to embrace negative emotions or situations

Fully clothed

Remaining emotionally guarded or distant

For a second time you're on my mind

Recurring thoughts about someone

Planted on this still

Stuck or rooted in a stagnant situation

You forget I do not pay in kind

Not reciprocating in a similar manner

Kind's not there

Kindness or generosity is absent or lacking

For the eyes to see through

Lack of transparency or an inability to see through actions

All that I do

A reflection on personal actions or behavior


For instance I don't have to try

Confidence in not needing to make an effort

I'm falling over all the right lines

Being successful without trying too hard

We only have to leave this last

A hint at leaving things till the end

Resist all falling at the wrong times

Resisting making mistakes or wrong decisions at crucial moments


Safe in knowledge, safe in college

Feeling secure in knowledge, possibly academic or theoretical

I know all there is to know

Confident in one's understanding of everything

To have never stepped outside this ring

Not venturing beyond comfort zones, possibly missing out on experiences

Fools they flow

Seeing those who take risks as foolish

For the self-assured I have no cure

No remedy for those who are excessively self-assured

I only wish I was

Wishing for a different state of mind despite being confident

As my entertaining thoughts grow fewer

Decreasing interest in entertaining thoughts

Stills my cause

Stagnation or cessation of personal motivation


For the eyes to see through

Reiteration of lack of transparency or understanding

All that I do

Continued reflection on personal actions or behavior


For instance I don't have to try

Confidence in not needing to make an effort

I'm falling over all the right lines

Being successful without trying too hard

We only have to leave this last

A suggestion to conclude things

Resist all falling at the wrong times

Resisting making mistakes or wrong decisions at crucial moments


For the accent, for the day (don't walk just swim)

Doing things differently, not following the usual path

For the incidents they'll happen and they'll happen anyway (it's gonna pass)

Accepting that certain events are inevitable

When you leave here, leave this way (one last request)

A request or advice on departing in a particular way

You are far enough to be impressed

Being impressed at a distance but not letting it lead to despair

But not so far to be depressed

Understanding the balance between admiration and depression

Drink your souvenirs and go your way

Metaphorical advice to move forward after cherishing memories

For instance I don't have to try

Confidence in not needing to make an effort

I'm falling over all the right lines

Being successful without trying too hard

We only have to leave this last

A repetition emphasizing concluding things

Resist all falling at the wrong times

Resisting making mistakes or wrong decisions at crucial moments

For instance I don't have to try

Confidence in not needing to make an effort

I'm falling over all the right lines

Being successful without trying too hard

We only have to leave this last

A suggestion to conclude things

Resist all falling at the wrong times.

Resisting making mistakes or wrong decisions at crucial moments
