Can't Stand The Confines
David Gray

I'm so excited

That you decided

To tell me where it is

I'm going wrong

Feel so foolish

I hadn't seen it

And there you where

You knew it all along

You're such a joker

So mediocre

You'll go a long way for sure

I can't stand these confines anymore


Break down the mirror

Feel your heart inside

Free now and running with the tide

Far from the city

And the doubts that chain

Heading out into the night again

Move your mouse and

Buy a house or

Sell a thousand kilograms of steam

Be realistic

See the statistics

Yeah but they make me want to scream

Lining up with

Idiots and middlemen

To get one foot inside the door

I can't stand these confines anymore


Break down the mirror

Feel your heart inside

Free now and running with the tide

Far from the city

And the thoughts that chain

Heading out into the night again


Calculate me

Underrate me

Before I've had a chance


To catch a breath

Careful now

The way you're going

Danger you might

Smile someone to death

I've never known someone

To care so little

And yet be so sincere

I can't stand these confines in here

Break down the mirror

Feel your heart inside

Free now and running with the tide

Far from the city

And the thoughts that chain

Heading out into the night again


Up in the office

They're talking profits

I don't know what it is

But I don't feel safe

That human hope

Can still survive

Right now it seems

A miracle of faith

We like our murder

Nice and blurred

Don't want to look no further

Than the skin

I can't stand these confines that I'm in


Break down the mirror

Feel your heart inside

Free now and running with the tide

Far from the city

And the doubts that chain

Heading out into the night again
