[Verse 1]

With a meantime meanwhile clear cut conscience

Let the paraffin prop me up

Take a couple more swings hope I get it all wrong

Cause permanent never seems permanent enough

[Pre-Chorus]

I wash from beige to blue

I was never that lost just afraid to lose

Lacquer my luck so pale to prove

This heart don't break the way that it used to

[Chorus]

So gimme that strong stuff

Who says anything lasts that long

Like a second-hand headrush

I miss that stock cut way that it was

With everything honеst

That kerosene shinе that acetone touch

And I don't mind my colours might run

I've had enough half string second guess love

Cause none of it ever feels permanent enough

(Mmm Mmm Mmm)

[Verse 2]

I'm a paradise plastic slight spitting image but

Everything lasts just as long as it did

And the years spent white-knuckle waiting at the finish

I finally understand just another couple minutes

[Pre-Chorus]

You can watch me wash from beige to blue

I was never that lost just afraid to lose

Lacquer my luck so pale to prove

This heart don't break the way that it used to

[Chorus]

Just gimme that strong stuff

Who says anything lasts that long

Like a second-hand headrush

I miss that stock cut way that it was

With everything honest

That kerosene shine

That acetone touch

And I don't mind my colours might run

I've had enough half string second guess love

[Outro]

(I don't care coming undone)

(Who says anything ever lasts that long)

(I don't mind my colours might run)

(I've had enough half string second guess love)

I don't care I'm coming undone

Who says anything ever lasts that long

I don't mind, I don't mind
