[Verse 1]

Sally's in a dark place

Took me back to her space

Gave me just a little taste

Said it helps her deal with the human race

Fast-forward five months

It's taken everything I own

I'm balling up my stuff

I can't stop to dwell because needs must


[Chorus]

And now I'm lying on the kitchen floor

We know I wanted more

A trick of light, the sleight of hand

Everyone's left but the band

And they could see the state we're in

While we lean into the wind


[Post-Chorus]

While we lean into this wind


[Verse 2]

I'm walking the thin line

Waiting for a feeling to come

Waiting for a warm embrace

So then I can deal with this human race

Walking into the dust

The dark edges of a place

And seeing if the lights are on

And praying that they will give me grace


[Chorus]

And now I'm lying on the kitchen floor

I always wanted more

It's a sad state, I've learned fast

When you realise no one cares

Or is it information fatigue?

While we lean into the wind


[Post-Chorus]

Watch you lean into this wind


[Outro]

(Oh, watch us lean into the wind)

While we lean into the wind

Watch us lean into the wind
