subtle but not underground

Some days, I hate her and realize that I'm better off. Some days, I wish that we could just start over.
Taken I am yours I'm up and doing circles I collapse I might stay out longer than I left the light on for you then If you show you show When I feel like this, when I get so into myself I lose track of where I'm going then, lose track of how to get going again Feel myself slowing down Feel myself turning around Is this taken? When I feel like this, when I get so sick of myself Where are you going then, without me And not knowing then, that we're slowing down You've got to turn right around And tell me that I'm taken then Tell me if I'm yours You collapse The pressure of this life is so you can't be held accountable If you go you go When you act like this, when you get so sick of yourself The whole world falls away, and since I feel like I have only missed The feeling that I'm here again The feeling that I'm clear again I'm not taken When you act like this, when you get so into yourself I lose sight of common goals and letting go So I can be all alone Feel myself going slow, feel myself letting go Not taken, not feeling like I'm yours Taken I am yours I'm up and doing circles I collapse This life looks like a sentence, though a constant game of falling short If you know you know When I feel like this, when I'm just so sick of feeling less than perfect Isn't right for me, I never fight to see if coming clean would get to me I feel myself holding back, I feel the pressure, it's finally back, I'm taken When you felt like this, when you saw it all come crashing down Subtle but not underground, I was there I saw the signs I saw unfair and so I wrote to you through other means I let myself finally feel taken Like I was yours "Are You Ten Years Ago" By Tegan & Sara
