Don't Stop -

Oh, I’m tired, I’m tired of all this introspection

Each day being led by committee direction

Just seems somehow all of my friends found the answers (well good for them)

I know, it’s all I can do to stop calling them

And oh, you’re tough, your confidence is made by Teflon

I can’t hide and I never seem to learn all my lessons

I can’t look, 'cos your eyes burn a hole straight through me (and that’s unfair)

I know because all of my secrets are spread round town

And if I start to tell you, I’m not as clued up as I’d like

Just stop me

And if I let slip, there’s something I’m trying to hide

Just stop me

Because a lifestyle where I’m constantly living a lie

Has to be preferable to showing my hand

Oh, I’m lost, I’m lost inside a flippin' vortex

Spiral down watching everyone else moving forwards

And yeah, yeah, you’re a fragment of hope but you’re fake (don't take offence)

I know, it’s like ladders and snakes, but there’s only snakes

And if I start to tell you, that maybe I don’t feel like dancing

Don’t stop me

If I let slip, yeah maybe there’s someone I fancy

Don’t stop me

Because a lifestyle, where I’m constantly showing my hand

Has to be preferable to living a lie

I went on trial at my instigation

Opened my files to investigation

Caught your eye in a conversation

And it might be love, and I might be mistaken

I took advice and I made a statement

A party line of my own creation

You’re a helping hand, I’m appreciation

And it might be love, and I might be mistaken

And if I start to tell you, I’m not as clued up as I’d like

Don’t stop me

And if I let slip, there’s something I’m trying to hide

Don’t stop me

And if I tell you that maybe I don’t feel like dancing

Don’t stop me

If I let slip, yeah maybe there’s someone I fancy

Don’t stop me

Because a lifestyle, where I’m constantly showing my hand

Has to be preferable to living a lie
