You wait for a silence I wait for a word Lying next to your frame Girl unobserved You change your position You're changing me Casting these shadows Where they shouldn't be
We're interrupted By the heat of the sun Trying to prevent What's already begun You're just a body I can smell your skin And when I feel it You're wearing thin
But I've got a plan Why don't you be the artist And make me out of clay? Why don't you be the writer Decide the words I say? Cause I'd rather pretend I'll still be there at the end Only it's too hard to ask Won't you try to help me?
Sat on your sofa It's all broken spring This isn't the place for Those violent strings I try out a smile And I aim it at you You must have missed it You always do
But I've got a plan Why don't you be the artist And make me out of clay? Why don't you be the writer Decide the words I say? Cause I'd rather pretend I'll still be there at the end Only it's too hard to ask Won't you try to help me?
You wait I wait Casting shadows Interrupted
You wait I wait Casting shadows Interrupted
You wait I wait Casting shadows Interrupted
You wait I wait Casting shadows
Why don't you be the artist And make me out of clay? Why don't you be the writer Decide the words I say? Cause I'd rather pretend I'll still be there at the end Only it's too hard to ask Won't you try to help me? Won't you try to help me? Won't you try to help me?
