Brittle Brain Lyrics

This brittle brain of mine

Will choose to spend the time

Flirting with disaster

Reckless by design

Restless to find out

What's behind the laughter

And I can't forget it

Or let it out my sight

But I never get it right

With this ordinary

Load I carry

I'm always bored or terrified

This brittle brain of mine

Will read between the lines

And only see the paper

Such little hope to find

A little piece of mind

With this fickle navigator

And I can't forget it

Or let it out my sight

But I never get it right

With this ordinary

Load I carry

I'm always bored or terrified

This brittle brain of mine

Struggles to define

Shadows in the background

Are they dancing

Or advancing on me?

Am I under attack now?

And I can't forget it

Or let it out my sight

But I never get it right

With this ordinary

Load I carry

I'm always bored or terrified

It's so ordinary
