lyrics

Time paying my dues
Change getting used to
This glass that I'm looking through
I'm in the middle of an investigation

Things that I wanna say
down deep inside of my brain
My mind, my heart is a cave
I'm in the middle of an excavation

I try, I try my best to joke
That's why that's why I need a smoke
But I don't smoke I never could smoke
When everyone else smokes

I saw as is a joke staying
On the edge of my thoughts
I better step back before I fall out
I'm strange, stranger than I thought
I'm the step of the investigation

I try, I try my best to learn
That's why, that's why 's to wait your turn
I never could learn to wait my turn
Cos I wanna lean they're gonna get burnt

Stakes I'm crossing the line
Dinner plates, the china is fine
I like your face I've made up my mind
I wanna start up an investigation ....
