Talk to Me, Talk to Me

It's got eyes and a mastery of gravity I'm lucky to be here now I was lonely Talk to me, talk to me I've got a new perspective The glass in my hand, it ain't exactly full The place at my table is an empty stool Talk to me, talk to me Confusion is trying to take a hold of me All I wanted was peace inside a sanctuary I lived my life so desperate to be in control Scared of getting hurt again But now I realise it's all for nothing All for nothing! I'm like the bugs that sleep for years Conditions are ripe, they fly into the sun The spectacle gets to you Life is always new Talk to me, talk to me From my waking sleep, I fear You're planning to prise yourself away from me You're planning to exit from my misery I can take a lot But I'm not prepared to face the alone Confusion is trying to take a hold of me All I wanted was peace inside a sanctuary I lived my life so desperate to be in control Scared of getting hurt again But now I realise it's all for nothing All for nothing! All I want is your hand on mine Slow rubbing, ecstasy of company I'm facing the lonely night With my fading sight Talk to me, talk to me Many times I faced the wall I called for the peace and now I've got it all Peace grows into anguish When your heart leaks Talk to me, talk to me Confusion is trying to take a hold of me All I wanted was peace inside a sanctuary I lived my life so desperate to be in control Scared of getting hurt again But now I realise it's all for nothing All for nothing! Confusion is trying to take a hold of me All I wanted was peace inside a sanctuary I lived my life so desperate to be in control Scared of getting hurt again But now I realise it's all for nothing All for nothing! Delusions are all my present currency They're causing the poison in my veins And voices Hearing voices telling me to beat the clock Doctor, please release me now I can't afford to waste another second I can't waste it! Confusion is trying to take a hold of me All I wanted was peace inside a sanctuary I lived my life so desperate to be in control --- Talk to Me, Talk to Me - Belle and Sebastian
