I wanted to know where you were, see what you were seeing
Hoped that passing time would mean I wouldn't need to bang my knees
You approach with trepidation, and why wouldn't you?
The years apart gave us myths but that's all
All the possibilities that lie ahead of us
Rekindling connections lost to teenage politics
I feel different now, or at least I'd like to think so
My inflated sense of arrogance is just less vocal
You might as well turn around, instead of walking up to me now
You might as well turn around, before I remove all doubt
You might as well turn around, there's a reason we fell out
So before I burn it down
I'm a floater in your eye - you follow me out of sight
My memories distorted your face and yours distorted mine
I'm sorry it's a let down but at least it proved something:
I need to move on with my life, the past is not so welcoming
You might as well turn around, instead of walking up to me now
You might as well turn around, before I remove all doubt
You might as well turn around, there's a reason we fell out
So before I burn it down
I don't see a point to arranging all of this
There may come a day, but today's not it
I don't think I'm seeing straight, at least not straight ahead
For sure I know one thing: as a man, I am predictable
You might as well turn around, instead of walking up to me now
You might as well turn around, before I remove all doubt
You might as well turn around, there's a reason we fell out
So before I burn it down
