Not a Priority - Blancmange

Not a priority

They fail to see

Beyond blood, skin and bone

You arising

Can’t be anything

Other than the way you are

To reach out in that night

And truly touch a star

Please be yourself

You can’t be anybody else

Be yourself

Be yourself

You can’t be anybody else

Be yourself

Bon oui good to be

That blood, this skin, these bones

Grand scheme

Do they ever even out?

Good enough for you

More than good enough for me

To reach out in that night

And truly touch a star

Please be yourself

You can’t be anybody else

Be yourself

Be yourself

You can’t be anybody else

Be yourself

Take your time

In your own words

They could hardly be anybody else’s now

The silent are… could they?

The sky at night calls

Glitching in the system

Beyond blood, skin and home

The shelves aren’t bare

Can’t be anything

Other than the way you are

To reach out in that night

And truly touch a star

Please be yourself

You can’t be anybody else

Be yourself

Be yourself

You can’t be anybody else

Be yourself
