Thalo - Nobody Here Lyrics

There's nobody here
I said there's nobody here
I can't see through
But there are lots of dry faces
And lots of mistakes I can see through
He said it's such a shame
That I don't really know the way to play the game
I don't have the wisdom to be quite as tame
To be quite the same
As them
But I say
"Don't go"
Every once in a while
And you sip your drink
And you suppose you'll smile
By the time I've put you
Overtop some old drum machine
You've dropped the key to your closet
Of skeletons and memes
There's somebody here
It's just that she doesn't look a thing like you
But she's an alright nothing-to-do
I guess
They're all drinking wine
Someone said it was fine
So they say so
One of them read it on the bottle
Now they're all just trying not to be the one
Who doesn't taste the chestnuts
(Honestly, no I mean honestly)
But I say
"I hope"
Every once in a while
A serendipity which isn't quite your style
By the time I've packed you
Under mountains of metaphor
You've tried and failed to convince me
That you didn't use the wrong form of 'your'
I say
"Don't go"
By the time you see me
Like the thousands that came before
I'm writing another song about how
I don't do that stuff anymore
