Song About a Boy - Intellectual

[Verse 1]

I hate when you say my full name

'Cause every time it's like I'm in trouble again

Hope we're still friends

And it's neither of our faults that the feelings I'd find

Were under my nose the entire fuckin' time

Well, that'd be right

You rubbed my back under my shirt to say

"This is probably not a good idea"

I face the wall and laugh, "No worries, mate

I've been sleeping alone for years”

And now we talk through mutual friends

And I'm still so unsure how I feel about this

We met, we found some common ground

Over sounds we make and I really fell for it

And I know that we've made this awkward

But you've learned the burning children in us are forward

We made an uncalculated risk

So let's just leave this lying where it is

Our pupils were dilated, we were captivated

Fixated with something that I forget

In some tent

Hunting through our mates' grog, the weather hot

We were doing lines in my car and laughing

At people passing

We watched a band, you whispered in my ear

"I can't bloody wait to watch you here"

Saw your eyes from miles away in a drugged-up haze

Why was it all okay?

Can fingers blush? I swear mine did

When they traced around the edges of your belt

My hands were numb, your breath ragged

And I know you knew exactly how I felt

And you know that we've made this awkward

But you've learned the burning children in us are forward

We made an uncalculated risk

So let's just leave this lying where it is
