lyrics

Looking for love in all the wrong places, like the back seats of taxis and in strangers faces. Fumbling for change and slowly turn the key, the ceiling is spinning, at least the floors holding onto me.

I'll start renovations. I can't wait 'till the Mason has the bleak realisation that we'll have to knock the whole wall through. I'll tear them down, as much as it is hurting me. I'll tear them down. I'm never saying never, no, I'm never saying never again.

I guess it turns out that love isn't really all you need. I'm at the end of my rope, I'm holding out hope for someone to hold onto me. I think I need something more, like a shred of dignity but I finally realised when I look in your eyes, you aren't looking back at me.

I'm a jigsaw, misshapen, trying to fit in the picture and the harder I force it, desperation is clearer. Creaking under the weight of vulnerability. Oh its easy to think that there's something wrong with me. I'll tear them down, as much as it is hurting me. I'll tear them down. I'm never saying never, no, I'm never saying never again.

I guess it turns out that love isn't really all you need. I'm at the end of my rope, I'm holding out hope for someone to hold onto me. I think I need something more, like a shred of dignity but I finally realised when I look in your eyes, you aren't looking back at me.

And I'm losing sight of shore. I've never been so far before. I'm sick of always wanting more, riptide I'm with you.

Looking for love in all the wrong places, like the bottoms of barrels. It's been found stranger places.
