lyrics

My misplaced love will eventually starve if not fed
Still I endlessly replay every throwaway remark you have ever said
I would like to think I had the self control to resist
But you insist on still existing

My misplaced love is ill advised, I'm compromised
I find it hard to stay perfectly quiescent in your presence
Oh I try, but woe is I, I can't pull off 'sophisticated'
When I'm so captivated

And I would like to see you try
To walk in my shoes for a while

My misplaced love has overstayed its welcome
It's becoming quite a problem surely more befitting of a younger girl
And I'm writing all the same songs over and again
Old maladies to new melodies

But I would like to see you try
To live in my head all the time
I don't think you'd survive

But then again, you could justify every lullaby
Bring it all together in a lovely operetta
Maybe not, maybe I'm just trying to write myself a neater life
But one day I will find a better place for my love to come alive
A man who's worth my time

Now I'm making all the same mistakes over and again
Old habits die hard
