Holmes
Mosquitoes
[Verse 1]
Your lips keep moving around but my mind keeps wondering away
Your mouth keeps making a sound but my ears are done for today
Now didn't your mother, teacher, priest or boyfriend ever say
Keep it short and never over stay
This ain't free buffet

[Pre-Chorus]
Like a ball bounce
Up against wall bounce
Words bounce back to you
Like an army of one
Shoot the gun
Shoot the gun
Keep plowing through, ooh, ooh


[Chorus]
Mosquitoes swatting me down
I can't believe you're still staying
Minute turns hour I can't find my day
Go away
Go away

[Verse 2]
Don't think I don't see you there lurking round the bend
It's times like these an A.I. crossover would swiftly end
As sure as traffic in LA you're closing in
I kiss that innocеnt hello goodbye and I close my еyes
[Pre-Chorus]
Like a ball bounce
Up against wall bounce
Words bounce back to you
Like an army of one
Shoot the gun
Shoot the gun
Keep plowing through, ooh, ooh

[Chorus]
Mosquitoes swatting me down
I can't believe you're still staying
Minute turns hour I can't find my day
Go away
Go away

[Bridge]
Wish I could've ignored
Wish I put her on hold indefinitely
I wish that I didn't care
Wish I wasn't aware
Then I wouldn't be me

If you got nothing to say
Abstain from the proof
Of that very fact
I know that the song
Is starting to sound
Like a Jobin track
A monologue delivered
In the presence of a witness
Doesn't quite equate a dialogue
I pause for motion sickness
As the words keep piling on
In a display of pointless fitness
And my knees begin to buckle
With an overwhelming weakness
I'm just waiting for a pause (breath)
To show up to a natural (?) I needed
I needed a little miracle now
Wish I could've ignored
Wish I put her on hold indefinitely

[Chorus]
Mosquitoes swatting me down
I can't believe you're still staying
Minute turns hour I can't find my day
Go away
Go away

Go away
Go away
Go away
Go away
