Fate I Insist On Escaping by Mavile from the album The "Final Hand"
lyrics
What is this thing I'm hearing
when I listen to you talk?
That paralyzes me completely
Drains my brain and breaks my bones
It's not the words you put together
It's not the brilliance of his tune
you're dancing to
I don't envy that he's clever
I envy that he's gotten used to you
It's not your voice and your phrasing
It's not the point that you're raising
It's the alarm of a happy ending
Of this fate that I insist on escaping
What is this thing I'm dreaming?
The morning train, you walk in late
What chemicals are you releasing
into my train wreck of a brain?
It's not the spaces in your pauses
It's not the brilliance of his plan to get to you
I don't envy that it's working
I envy that he's jealous of me too
Still, it's not your voice and your phrasing
It's not the point that you're raising
It's the alarm of a happy ending
In this fate that I insist on escaping
It's not your voice and your phrasing
It's not the point that you're raising
It's the alarm of a happy ending
It's the fate that I insist on escaping
