At Arms Length - LVX

When I was a young kid

All I ever needed

Was someone to tell me

Everything was easy

See, that someone must have just met

A woman with pure intent

'Cuz I find the word 'easy'

To be a little misleading

'Cuz it’s a Tuesday night

And all you see is lights

'Cuz you’re my Primadonna girl

And I said

Sticks and stones

Cannot break all my fragile bones

'Cuz I grew out of such childish games

Since I left you

Yeah, you got me saying

I don’t wanna, I don’t wanna, I don’t wanna

Have to hear, have to hear all your noise

I know you only want to keep me

At arms length

When I was a young kid

I had dreams about these feelings

But now my feet hang off the bed

And my dreams are only in my head

'Cuz it’s a Tuesday night

And all we do is fight

'Cuz you’re my Primadonna girl

And I said

Sticks and stones

Cannot break all my fragile bones

'Cuz I grew out of such childish games

Since I left you

Yeah, you got me saying

I don’t wanna, I don’t wanna, I don’t wanna

Have to hear, have to hear all your noise

I know you only want to keep me

At arms length

You

Have got to move onward

And so I walk across the room at nearly 60 miles an hour

'Cuz I don’t want to be alone when our sun turns into showers

Happiness is everything even though I’m used to settling

The silence in this room echoes loudly til it’s deafening

This ain’t a home

It’s a house

Breaking down and burning round us

What have we built that’s not fallen down?

No noise!

No noise!

You’re always way too loud

Sticks and stones

Cannot break all my fragile bones

'Cuz I grew out of such childish games

Since I left you

Yeah, you got me saying

I don’t wanna, I don’t wanna, I don’t wanna

Have to hear, have to hear all your noise

I know you only want to keep me

At arms length

I don’t wanna, I don’t wanna, I don’t wanna

Have to hear, have to hear all your noise

I know you only want to keep me

At arms length

I don’t wanna, I don’t wanna, I don’t wanna

Have to hear, have to hear all your noise

I know you only want to keep me
