Prospect - Undercast

These cracks in my skin, let the darkness seep right into me

But now I’m begging for the light that you throw

Struggling to find a way, I’ve got to break through this uncertainty

I’m sick of spending every day, concealing all the words I want to say

Then you turn back to me, it lingers on your lips

A stale breath is all I need, but now you’re lying right beside me

What an unusual perspective, knowing I’ll fall asleep today

Looking forward to tomorrow, I guess it’ll be okay

For the first time, in a long time

We’ll wander down Prospect street

Biggest problem in our lives is what we’re gonna eat

And maybe we can stay in bed all day;

Escape the cold, or get old

But it doesn’t matter anyway

Barely seven months ago

I can’t believe we didn’t know

All that time that we wasted, watching our favourite TV shows

Most of the time I find it hard to believe

I’m always trying to get a grip on my anxiety

‘Cause I never really thought I’d hear you say

All the things running through my head every single day

And usually I’d be sitting here

Waiting for everything to disappear

Like the smoke to the wind and the sun each night

You’re my undying light

We’ll wander down Prospect street

Biggest problem in our lives is what we’re gonna eat

And maybe we can stay in bed all day;

Escape the cold, or get old

But it doesn’t matter anyway

Barely seven months ago

I can’t believe we didn’t know

All that time that we wasted, watching our favourite TV shows

Maybe we can stay awake tonight

Maybe we can argue who is right

Then I’ll tell you everything I feel

I’m sorry if I double check it’s real

It’s because I know I’m not alone

When I tell my mother on the phone

That I’m sick of being on the road

And this is where I want to call my home

For the first time, in a long time

We’ll wander down Prospect street

Biggest problem in our lives is what we’re gonna eat

And maybe we can stay in bed all day;

Escape the cold, or get old

But it doesn’t matter anyway

Barely seven months ago

I can’t believe we didn’t know

All that time that we wasted, watching our favourite TV shows
