Lotus Grove - Alibi Lyrics

There you sit looking over me
Working up all of your jealousy
To throw at me, slowly
Yeah you're killing me slowly

And half of me knows that it's obvious
And most of you knows that it's hard for us
To trust each other fully
Yeah it's killing me slowly

But you don't alibi when you're clean
Yeah you don't need the middle man
Took every piece of me to feel nothing under the sun
Would've died for another hand

From where I sit you don't remember me
We'll catch each other up quarterly
Admittedly, it's lonely
Yeah you're not what you ought to be

But you don't alibi when you're clean
Yeah you don't need the middle man
Took every piece of me to feel nothing under the sun
What I'd give for another hand
And you don't act like you're older than me
I suppose I should stop holding out for that
Save my worries for the last few things that are real to me
Yeah maybe I'll work up to that

For years on now
I've been estranged from both sides
Of this used to be house
Forgetting how
To be human without losing it
Each time we're all in time
But it's not mine to change
And it's not mine to say
What's left or what's right anyway
Anyway

Yeah I don't alibi when I'm clean
Yeah I don't need the middle man
(Took every piece of me)
Took every piece of you to feel nothing under the sun
Bet you'd die for another hand
I sure act like I'm older than you
I suppose I should stop feeling good for that
And save my worries for the last few things that are real to me
Yeah maybe I'll work up to that
Yeah maybe I'll work up to that
