Something Unkind

You bring to mind the sound of everything played
At the same time and while this orchestra escapes
I remain stuck, paralysed and still
We moved from house to house in the vain hope
That a different location brings a new perspective
Or a spark to our life but it's all insignificant change
I am a host to something unkind
It speaks with my voice and it thinks with my mind
It's wearing me out as it wrestles inside
Talk to me calmly, untangle this vine

Untangle this vine
You thought that ghost had left you when you were young
But you couldn't shake it off
It's six years on and it still follows you around and it feeds
Off insignificant change
I am a host to something unkind
It speaks with my voice and it thinks with my mind
It's wearing me out as it wrestles inside
Talk to me calmly, untangle this vine

The claws are sunk into your back
They found you when disorder struck
The claws are sunk into your back
They found you when disorder struck
The claws are sunk into your back
They found you when disorder struck
The claws are sunk into your back
They found you when disorder struck

It feels like one of those days when your head behaves
In a different way to how your body dictates
You are caught in a state, caught in a state
Your foundations started to shake
You were listing the mistakes you've made
Then you struggle under the strain of the weight
You create, weight you create

The weight you create, weight you create
The weight you create, weight you create
The claws are sunk into your back
They found you when disorder struck
The claws are sunk into your back

They found you when disorder struck
The claws are sunk into your back
They found you when disorder struck
The claws are sunk into your back
They found you when disorder struck
You bring to mind the sound of everything played at the same time
