lyrics

you don't know friend or foe
shadowboxing in a soul doubt show
don't you remember when
when you weren't a statue
When you could move with
the swing of things.

come closer, over here
it's not over, it's not even close, my dear
don't you remember when
when you weren't a statue
when you could move to
the swing of things.

I think you're looking in the wrong place
your frozen daylight, your sleepless nights
escape into a warm embrace
and thaw that cold inside
don't you remember when
when you weren't a statue
When you could move with
the swing of things.

It's close quarters when you're the king
you close the borders you don't give up anything
oh hello your highness F minus
your ego is blocking the light show
come closer, over here
it's not over, my dear
don't you remember when
when you weren't a statue
When you could move to
the swing of things.
