"So Careless" lyrics

"So Careless"

I wake up in the morning and I make your cup of tea
I stand beside the bed and I fall in love with what I see
Then the night before comes flooding back and it's all askew
I'm so careless when it comes to you

I'm so careless

I'm decadent, that libertine, I'll put him on the shelf
Just to live and hope that one day I'll wake up and see myself
It's tragic how I twist and turn, I keep it out of view
I'm so careless when it comes to you

I break down

See that picture on the wall?
Of me and Mr. Grey
It's time I face my fears, my dear
Before you walk away

I'm so careless
I'm so careless

Suddenly, I'm wide awake, I'm still in bed with you
Was it just a nightmare or some tangent of the truth?
It's tragic how I twist and turn, I keep it out of view
I'm so careless when it comes to you

I break down

See that picture on the wall?
Of me and Mr. Grey
It's time I face my fears, my dear
Before you walk away

Just walk away
Please stay

See that picture on the wall?
Of me and Mr. Grey
It's time I face my fears, my dear
Before you walk away

I'm so careless
I'm so careless
I'm so careless
When it comes to you
