I'm looking for an excuse
_____
Good enough to not be myself
_____
Uneasy with the glass in my hand, lost at a party
_____
And I see everyone else dressed better than me
_____
In this place can't you see even the plants are fake
_____
And I stared into space outside that window
_____
Looking for something that really interests me
_____
Take me for a ride, I need some fresh air
_____
Wondering what it'd be like living a slightly different life
_____
For you I'd want to live on a desert island
_____
But in the end I'd get bored
_____
Who knows if you'll book
_____
A room with a view over my troubles
_____
And really lift me up, at least you, at least you
_____
So high I can't see down, can't see down
Who knows if you'll take me there
_____
Or if all your 'buts' turn into 'never'
Making the hours feel short
_____
Still, thinking things sort themselves out
_____
And when you shake a hand meanwhile
You've already forgotten the name
But if it's you holding me
_____
I haven't answered you again, but I haven't forgotten you
_____
Like riding a bike when the asphalt's wet
_____
I keep my balance, and if I think of you sometimes I fall
_____
Who knows if you'll book
_____
A room with a view over my troubles
_____
And really lift me up, at least you, at least you
_____
So high I can't see down, can't see down
_____
Who knows if you'll take me there
_____
Or if all your 'buts' turn into 'never'
_____
Even though I don't know how to stay close
_____
We scream the worst things at each other
But then we meet up at my place
_____
Who knows if you'll book
_____
A room with a view over my troubles
_____
And really lift me up, at least you, at least you
_____
So high I can't see down, can't see down
_____
Who knows if you'll take me there
_____
Or if all your 'buts' turn into 'never'
