lyrics

Will you introduce me to the one I haven't met?
I can offer her my history and war with reverence
But will you reassure me that she's everything you've said?
I'll need proof in the pudding, not second-hand evidence

She's afraid -- I could waver
She's afraid -- I might fold
Cause I'm the king of bad decisions -- Well, so I've been told

Is there a promise that would help her take shape
Can her thick skin make lightening from mundane
I can tune a signal if it's sent my way
But I'll need to hear it more than once to turn that way

She's afraid -- I could waver
She's afraid -- I might fold
Cause I'm the king of bad decisions -- Well, so I've been told

Does she need everyone or is the yard wide enough

She's afraid -- I could waver
She's afraid -- I might fold
Cause I'm the king of bad decisions -- Well, so I've been told

Does she know my world needs to change?
spent years chasing a butterfly who left a mark on my brain.
I'm pretty good with a needle and thread but this mark could seep out
So I'm just gonna stay right here while it's still light out

I used to be in a band called The Jupiter Project, and then I was in License, then I went toe-to-toe with Giant Battle Wombat and most recently I tried to keep up with the Paper Snakes. ... more
