Fallen Leaves - Neneh Cherry

Now everything in focus

I can see it clearly

Every little detail

Crystal clear and dread

Breaks my little brain

The clarity hurts

So looking at the pain now

We clearly let us down

If I could alter shift over petty ways

Plastic cups and paper plates

The quiet parties that never end

Don’t mean a shit

It’s easier unsaid

Is it fallen leaves

The bird shit on my sleeve

With no luck at all

There’ll be no luck for me

Watch me come undone

Look at what you see

Just because I’m down

Don’t step all over me

Keep it under wraps then

Keep it sealed and safe

Things we left unsaid

Well, they become a roar

Push my buttons best

Unraveled at the seams

I have come undone

In the fabric of our dreams

Cover them so neatly

Too many layers deep down within me and yet

I guess we’re like strangers

I don’t even know

Pull my trigger now

And it would drown within me

Is it fallen leaves

The bird shit on my sleeve

With no luck at all

There’ll be no luck for me

Watch me come undone

Look at what you see

Just because I’m down

Don’t step all over me

Don’t step all over me
