The Manoeuvres Lyrics

The Manoeuvres lyrics



The lover's crime is to think alone

Waste your time in another zone

My wicked mind thinks you're on loan

Learn the manoeuvres again and again

Affection and alienation

Keep my footing with some of my friends

While others are changing the station

You want to compete

But I just don't care

Throw the match

I'll still be fair

You say you're not reaching out

But I saw your flares

Admit you and I are defeatist clones

How else to explain the higher potential

Wait in line in ill-fitting clothes

Only using my gears when it's essential
