Bombay Bicycle Club - I Can Hardly Speak

When I turn out
Not a word out
It's my reality
Then I curl up
It won't take much
To stand in front and see

I got that ego
What do I know?
It don't mean much to me
Fall away now
On my way down
It's all I know
And I can hardly speak

There's a lighthouse
I can hide out
Staring out to sea
Shine a word through
Did it reach you?
Or echo back to me

I got that ego
What do I know?
When I can hardly see
Fall away now
On my way down
It's all I know
And I can hardly speak

A picture on the wall
Looking back at me
And I can't even talk
I'm floating in a dream
I'm floating in a dream

You say I've a bent tooth
Well I don't even like you
Want me to leave my cocoon
Where does that leave you?
You say you can see my bones
But I can see right through you
Too many faces to please
I can see a place for me
(I come home to write it all)
(For me)
I come home to write it all
(For me)
I come home to write it all
(For me)
I come home to write it all

(I come home to write it all)
A picture on the wall
(I come home to write it all)
Looking back at me
(I come home to write it all)
And I can't even talk
(I come home to write it all)
I'm floating in a dream

(I'm floating in a dream)
