  • Carved earth, cold
    Hiding from you in this skin
    So, old
    I'll come, clean
    Everyone-everyone knows
    It's, me

    And if I recover
    Will you be my comfort?
    Or it can be over
    Or we can just leave it here
    So pick any number
    Choose any color
    I've got the answer
    Open the envelope

    I'll give you one more chance
    To say we can change or part ways
    And you take what you need
    And you don't need me

    I'll give you one more chance
    To say we can change our old ways
    And you take what you need
    And you know you don't need me

    Blow by blow
    Honest in every way I know
    You appear
    To face a decision I know you fear

    And if I recover
    Will you be my comfort?
    Or it can be over
    Or we can just leave it here
    So pick any number
    Choose any color
    I've got the answer
    Open the envelope

    I'll give you one more chance
    To say we can change or part ways
    And you take what you need
    And you don't need me

    I'll give you one more chance
    To say we can change our old ways
    And you take what you need
    And you know you don't need me

    And you know you don't need me

    And if I recover
    Will you be my comfort
    Or it can be over
    Or we can just leave it here
    So pick any number
    Choose any color
    I've got the answer
    Open the envelope

    I'll give you one more chance
    To say we can change or part ways
    And you take what you need
    And you don't need me

    I'll give you one more chance
    To say we can change our old ways
    And you take what you need
    And you know you don't need me Writer/s: IAIN ANDREW COOK, LAUREN EVE MAYBERRY, MARTIN CLIFFORD DOHERTY
