This was a dumb idea, even for you
I'm not straight enough to be straight
And I'm too damn scared to be wild
I'm mix-paced
People keep telling me how much better it is here than London
You're over-excited, convincing yourself that you like it
The sea's not the only thing here that's full of shite
You think cold water will save you
I roam around on a chequered board of vape shops and nail bars
I came to observe and not to play
I could never properly understand the rules of the game anyway
Or what's worse
Dying before your time or living beyond it
Sad lads anonymous
Kids who broke promises
I blamed my parents
All of us in the madhouse did
Subliminal, you keep it locked away
So criminal, I couldn't have my way
Subliminal, I don't know what to say
So criminal I keep it in the day
Subliminal, you keep it locked away
So criminal, I couldn't have my way
Subliminal, I don't know what to say
So criminal I keep it in the day
Knowing that nothing is a better option than me
Betrothed and betrayed, divorced and behaved
Cure it, cure me, poor little Geordie
Sink a dagger right through me
Paintings are just currency, Pokemon cards for the rich to swap
Hanging in the bathroom of a penthouse suite
In some shiny seven-star hotel in Dubai
Installed by slaves
Handmade, engraved
A taxi driver with road rage
Digging himself an early grave
Don't do yourself in
Cheers to another blinding show
The band left hours ago, according to the work-experience kid
That I'm currently telling all my deepest darkest secrets to
In a toilet cubicle
So damn typical
I feel trapped in this stillness
Trapped on this island
Trapped in this dilapidated schizophrenic seaside town
You keep it
UKIP it, you cursed it
I don't want to hear it
Don't tell me your secrets
I'm exhausted
Subliminal, you keep it locked away
So criminal, I couldn't have my way
Subliminal, I don't know what to say
So criminal I keep it in the day
Subliminal, you keep it locked away
So criminal, I couldn't have my way
Subliminal, I don't know what to say
So criminal I keep it in the day
