Lyrics:

You make it look so easy
You seem to fit inside your own skull so comfortably
But I haven't been myself lately
And thankyou
The pleasure has been all mine
As I wait for my pulse to catch up with me
 
If I can leave here today then I would
If I could change my face and my name then I would
If I could run to some technicolour place then I would
If I could learn from my mistakes then I would
 
The lights come back on
And what has my imagination done for me lately
I sit in this chair
Concentrating on a crack in the ceiling and
And thankyou
Thankyou
The pleasure has been all mine
As I wait for my pulse to catch up with me
 
If I could see with your eyes then I would
If I could change my face and my name then I would
If I could run to some technicolour place then I would
If I could learn from my mistakes then I would
wooh...
 
You make it look so easy
Yeah you make me s-s-s-seasick
 
If I could leave here today Then I would
If I could change then I would
If I could run then I would
If I could fly then I would
I would
