Collapsible People
[Verse 1: Haydn, Both Haydn & Millie]
Collapsible people
Folding under the weight of better times and broken spines
You crumble to tears, but you're never here
A poise to appear, like you could...
[Chorus 1: Both]
Never crave attention
You have a need for false affection
You love every passer by
Self-inflicted tension
You're full of back and forth contentions
You love every passer by
[Verse 2: Both]
Fall, stumble on words. 'cause nothings unheard
But could you go and stand on your own?
A place in the crowd, a place to back down
Another wish to be alone, wish to be alone
[Chorus 2: Both]
Do you crave attention?
You have a need for false affection
You love every passer by
Self-inflicted tension
You're full of back and forth contentions
You love every passer by
[Bridge: Both]
You seem to forget that infectious words
Are words to regret, infected and proud
A part of the crowd, wondering how, you could keep up face?
Oh-oh-oh-oh
[Outro: Both]
Do you crave attention?
You have a need for false affection
You love every passer by
Self-inflicted tension
You're full of back and forth contentions
You love every passer by
You love every passer by
Collapsible people
Folding under the weight of better times and broken spines
You crumble to tears, but you're never here
A poise to appear, like you could...
[Chorus 1: Both]
Never crave attention
You have a need for false affection
You love every passer by
Self-inflicted tension
You're full of back and forth contentions
You love every passer by
[Verse 2: Both]
Fall, stumble on words. 'cause nothings unheard
But could you go and stand on your own?
A place in the crowd, a place to back down
Another wish to be alone, wish to be alone
[Chorus 2: Both]
Do you crave attention?
You have a need for false affection
You love every passer by
Self-inflicted tension
You're full of back and forth contentions
You love every passer by
[Bridge: Both]
You seem to forget that infectious words
Are words to regret, infected and proud
A part of the crowd, wondering how, you could keep up face?
Oh-oh-oh-oh
[Outro: Both]
Do you crave attention?
You have a need for false affection
You love every passer by
Self-inflicted tension
You're full of back and forth contentions
You love every passer by
You love every passer by
