Candy Pieces All Smeared Out Lyrics - Mew

The sharpest I've ever been 

In your arms 

I'm trying to make you see 

And talk about letting go of something 

You'd trade it all for me 

Undignified, don't you think? 

Just standing there 

With nowhere else to go 

You sprayed your hair, added hold 

Stability, a scaffold for the soul 

The weather is better 

Oh, we could ride there 

Cruising on our bikes 'til the sun comes up 

We gotta be smarter 

Oh, look at you, so careless on this road 

Let your hands go free 

The sharpest I've ever been 

Is knowing the trouble that I'm in 

And love is such a burden 

A tiger balm to irritate the skin 

Oh, we could tell just looking at the top 

Of your overcoat collar 

Candy pieces all smeared out 

Surely you see there are two versions of me 

One googles itself 

And the other one lives free 

The weather is better 

Oh, we could ride there 

Cruising on our bikes 'til the sun comes up 

We gotta be smarter 

Oh, look at you, so careless on this road 

Let your hands go free
