Like a lonely wolf Howling in the night Calling for you Time is passing by And I'm feeling so sad The wounds of love won't heal I'm running around in circles 'Cause we don't talk anymore Now I walk these streets alone Straying in the night, searching for you Give it a try for a second time Don't you know I'm missing you Give it a chance for a second romance Don't you know I love you I thought our love is strong But now I know I was wrong Wrong all the time We said we'll draw the line But it's hard to forget All those memories Give it a try for a second time Don't you know I'm missing you Give it a chance for a second romance Don't you know I love you Don't you know I love you... Give it a try for a second time Don't you know I'm missing you Give it a chance for a second romance Don't you know I love you Give it a try for a second time Don't you know I'm missing you (You know I'm missing you) Give it a chance for a second romance Don't you know (don't you know) I love you Don't you know I love you...

You learn a couple things when you get to my age Like friends don't lie And it all tastes the same in the dark When your vinyl and your coffee collection Is a sign of the times You're getting spiritually enlightened at 29 So, just give yourself a try Won't you give yourself a try? Won't you give yourself a try? Won't you give? I found a grey hair on one of my suits Like context in a modern debate, I just took it out The only apparatus required for happiness Is your pain and fucking going outside And getting STDs at 27 really isn't the vibe Jane took her own life at 16 She was a kid who had the box tattooed on her arm And I was 25 and afraid to go outside A millennial that baby boomers like Won't you give yourself a try? Won't you give yourself a try? Won't you give yourself a try? Won't you give? And what would you say to your younger self? Growing a beard's quite hard And whiskey never starts to taste nice And you'll make a lot of money, and it's funny 'Cause you'll move somewhere sunny And get addicted to drugs And spend obscene amounts On fucking seeds and beans online And so, just give yourself a try Won't you give yourself a try? Won't you give yourself a try? Won't you give?

It's tough to stay attractive baby With your tongue upsailing down my neck It's a bullet-proof offer and I can't accept It's tough to maintain focus baby Now all my elephants are in the room We crave the fiction when we need the truth You need to find a different boy's heart to chew And all these emoticons and words Try to make it better but they only make it worse It's tough to feign indifference baby Now I'm spending all the money I have Trying to impress you is kinda driving me mad And I don't blame the pressure or the vultures in the sky I blame what happened everytime we're under neon lights We crave the tension in a room with a view You need to find a different boy's heart to chew And all these emoticons and words Try to make it better but they only make it worse And all these emoticons and words Fail to make it better their attempts just make it worse It's everything I want and nothing I can keep And behind these metaphors I want you literally We crave the fiction when we need the truth You need to find a different boy's heart to chew And all these emoticons and words Try to make it better but they only make it worse But I like it here so much I might stay The edge of nowhere is such a beautiful place The edge of nowhere is such a beautiful place

I had no cares in the 1990's I knew of no downfalls Though war was breaking out all around me My concerns were with prank calls She kissed me on the cheek, she kissed me on the cheek Right in front of the older kids When our self belief, our self belief Wasn't scarred by the modern itch 'Cause now it feels like We kiss with one eye on our TV set And the more I give, the less I get Needing fairground rides just to spark her smile There's little here to miss Bring back 1996 Bring back 1996 So hard to beat those teenage kicks Bring back 1996 We were cloning sheep in the 1990's We were building telescopes And sugar filled the whole of my body As I urged it on to grow I kissed her on the cheek, I kissed her on the cheek Just to impress the older kids But my self belief, my self belief Wasn't lost in the modern glitch 'Cause now it feels like We kiss with one eye on our TV set And the more I give, the less I get Needing fairground rides just to spark her smile There's little here to miss Bring back 1996 Bring back 1996 Stop talking, stop talking (ah-ah-ah-ah) I need a lover, not a friend tonight I'm leaving, I'm leaving (ah-ah-ah-ah) I'm not cut out for the modern life I'll never beat those teenage kicks I'll never beat those teenage kicks I'll never beat those teenage kicks Bring back 1996

Too much, too much I worry, I worry too much Too much, too much I worry, I worry too much Multiples of three keep me warm, keep me stable Six candles on a wall with just one lit Flick a switch, lick a key, paint a chair on a table Superstition's a wasp at your picnic I'll say it again but without feeling I'll get what I think if I keep on thinking About all the other lovers that fell down the stairs It's not paranoia if it's really there It's not, it's not, it's not paranoia if it's really there It's not, it's not, it's not paranoia if it's really there Too much, too much I worry, I worry too much Too much, too much I worry, I worry too much Bang my head on a wall that I built in the future I let the smallest of things ruin the day I'm the voicemail that you could've, should've checked sooner I'm the only obstruction in the way I'll say it again but without feeling I'll get what I think if I keep on thinking About all the other lovers that fell down the stairs It's not paranoia if it's really there It's not, it's not, it's not paranoia if it's really there It's not, it's not, it's not paranoia if it's really there It's not, it's not, it's not paranoia if it's really there It's not, it's not, it's not paranoia if it's really there It's not, it's not, it's not paranoia if it's really there It's not, it's not, it's not paranoia if it's really there Too much, too much I worry, I worry too much Too much, too much I worry, I worry too much

It's all kicking off again Words buzz but certainly don't sink in The rain hits the tiles on the bathroom floor Hissing little rattlesnake All fired up and ultimately afraid So slam the door Cos baby when you talk like that The pain moves from my chest to my lower back Are we trying to sell the ocean to the sea? I thought we could communicate Perhaps do a few things the old fashioned way Are we trying to sell the ocean to the sea? I'm praying for a soft exit Good neighbours who occasionally baby sit Then double-cross behind the scenes Yes, okay, maybe, we're probably not To end up, but know we go through quite a lot It needs to stop Cos baby when you talk like that The pain moves from my chest to my lower back Are we trying to sell the ocean to the sea? I thought we could communicate Perhaps do a few things the old fashioned way Are we trying to sell the ocean to the sea? I punch my head, don't know what you want from me It's a fucked up world so let's talk about it, please They wanna make sketch shows about my anxiety dreams Are we trying to sell the ocean to the sea?

I could use some peer pressure A little human error A change in attitude You're so well put together Cold beer in temperate weather A beach with jungle views And tell me, sugar Am I close to getting close? Is there something I need to know? Pull the trigger And pull me back from the edge Pull me out of my head She is wildfire She is wildfire She is wildfire I could live in here forever A place beyond the pleasure A place beyond the high This cake wears a new icing I can feel the GABA rising And tell me, sugar Am I close to getting close? Is there something I need to know? Pull the trigger And pull me back from the edge Pull me out of my head She is wildfire She is wildfire She is wildfire She is wildfire She is wildfire She is wildfire I could live in here forever A place beyond the pleasure A place beyond the high (she is wildfire) Let's go back to the sixties Find a drug to fix me And now I see that she is wildfire
