"Turn Off My Music" lyrics

"Turn Off My Music"

There's a bookstore on Lygon street
Right by the restaurant where I take good friends to eat
In the bookstore's front window
They display local records like mine

Before life had it's way with me
My boyfriend and I would pass by and photograph the
Pretty baby-pink vinyl
Pose, stare and smile
All the stars had aligned

Look at the photos in my camera roll
The girl pictured I don't recognise at all
Been over six months since the world I dreamed up
Was struck by a wrecking ball

So turn off my music
I don't wanna hear it
And be reminded what it's like to lose it
Could you pick another song to play so I don't cry
I know it's pathetic
But my whole identity's defined
By how loudly I love all I have to leave behind
So before I break down and ruin it
Please turn off my music
Turn off my music

Talked about it in therapy
Let the tears fall, shared my toxic analogy
Obstacle course I cannot seem to complete
Am I wasting my time

Oh, look at the photos in my camera roll
The shows we played, memories made now take a toll
They say it's still waiting, the world I dreamed up
But these things you just can't control

So turn off my music
I don't wanna hear it
And be reminded what it's like to lose it
Could you pick another song to play so I don't cry
I know it's pathetic
But my whole identity's defined
By how loudly I love all I had to leave behind
So before I break down and ruin it
Please turn off my music
Turn off my music

Said I wouldn't break down
I'm doing it
So turn off my music
