Pleaser

[00:12.17] Why does the menu always lie?
[00:17.27] And why did I take a dozen trains
[00:20.16] Underdressed for a hurricane?
[00:23.41] And I'm gonna love this place I hear
[00:28.67] So I start toying with my glass and smile like an overpass
[00:34.72] Certain things feel smooth to me
[00:37.49] Go in and out like steam through pipes
[00:40.53] But this is such an old machine that I let vapor cool to ice
[00:46.42] I don't think you see the freeze, but still, I bet you wonder why
[00:51.77] I came here in a hurricane just to leave before I dry
[00:57.29] Am I meant to a pleaser?
[00:59.80] Was I born to keep you sane?
[01:03.01] I know I can make it easier
[01:05.92] That's never been my way
[01:08.62] I don't wanna be your mirror
[01:11.50] Or your pretty piggy bank
[01:14.39] No one's smashing me to pieces, nothing here for you to claim
[01:25.46] Which part of me was always you?
[01:30.66] It's not the one you're staring at
[01:33.64] It's calling for you from the back
[01:36.41] And yet, it's the bit I'm turning to
[01:42.07] The metal chair I'm sitting in
[01:44.81] The bonds I've long been living in
[01:47.92] So what am I supposed to do?
[01:50.74] Should I let you go down the drain
[01:53.75] And pull me there, held by my hair?
[01:56.62] 'Cause it's not better than the rain
[01:59.76] And when you are one thing at first
[02:02.19] Molded by an empty hand
[02:05.04] Do you become its very worst, or do you start again?
[02:10.67] Am I meant to a pleaser?
[02:13.26] Was I born to keep you sane?
[02:16.39] I know I can make it easier
[02:19.33] That's never been my way
[02:21.77] I don't wanna be your mirror
[02:24.88] Or your pretty piggy bank
[02:27.66] No one's smashing me to pieces, nothing here for you to claim
[02:56.97] Am I meant to a pleaser?
[02:59.30] Was I born to keep you sane?
[03:02.08] I know I can make it easier
[03:04.93] That's never been my way
[03:07.80] I don't wanna be your mirror
[03:10.77] Or your pretty piggy bank
[03:13.86] No one's smashing me to pieces, they're just lying in my wake
[03:19.32] Oh, oh
[03:25.81]
