Pack up everything you knew

You go back to boring people,

because they make you feel civilised

People think you're out of order when you say you're being kind

I didn't mean to crash the party,

but don't keep me on the side-lines

Don't judge yourself too harshly,

but you're almost never satisfied

Pack up everything you knew

I'm in love with every side of you

I'm very impressed

With the things you possess

Inside of you

What's your latest excuse?

You go back to things familiar,

because they make you feel at ease

People think you're out of order when you say you're being free

I didn't mean to crash the party,

but don't keep me on the side-lines

Don't judge yourself too harshly,

but you're almost never satisfied

Pack up everything you knew

I'm in love with every side of you

I'm very impressed

With the things you possess

Inside of you

What's your latest excuse?
