Lyrics:
Think I heard something break, I’m sorry
There’s something happening in me
It’s like I’m looking down at my body
A pinball in a game losing speed
If I’m aimless, am I blameless when I hurt someone?
Why? Why does it have to be?
The least favourite subject, learning in public
When I can’t even look at me
While everyone’s watching, I’m learning in public
Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
All and, all and, all is just a memory
I didn’t mean to make you unhappy
I didn’t mean to change without letting you know
I felt that I could take, take you with me
But did you sleep away? Or did I let go?
It’s confusing
What I’m losing, it was never mine
Why? Why does it have to be?
The least favourite subject, learning in public
When I can’t even look at me
While everyone’s watching, I’m learning in public
Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
All and, all and, all is just a memory
Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
(Oh, why)
Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
(To be)
The time, the time, the time, the time and energy
Everything I thought I wanted
I changed my mind and I forgot it
The time, the time, the time, the time and energy
We’re too young, too weird to offer it
This is somewhere ’till it’s nowhere at all
And all, and all, and all is just a memory
Why? (Oh, why?) Why does it have to be?
The least favourite subject, learning in public (Ah, I)
When I (When I) can’t even look at me
While everyone’s watching, I’m learning in public
Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
(Learning in public)
Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
All and, all and, all is just a memory
Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
Doo-doo-doo-doo-doo-doo, doo-doo-doo
The time, the time, the time, the time and energy
Everything I thought I wanted
I changed my mind and I forgot it all
