Edgeways Lyrics by Asha Banks

Someone’s wearing all your clothes, saw a flicker, and I froze
And I’d catch that thread, needle through my head
Someone’s speaking in your voice, and it’s cutting through the noise
‘Cause I feel that tone, living in my bones

Three months feeling better
You’re still smug as ever
Laughing at the thought of it
Two years, six months headache
Cut too close to heartbreak
You warned me you’d be back again

Now I can’t get a thought in edgeways
You’re spinning me around the room
In every little thing I do
I keep the frame focused on you
Don’t want to be your dead weight
But I’m hook and eye attached to you
Honey, won’t you cut me loose
Then maybe you’ll get a thought in edgeways too

Is it not quite how you planned it?
Is it hard to understand it?
Could be just about time I might’ve moved on?

Can’t bear to mull over
Cut too close to closure
Olive branch, letter sent
Get back in my head

Now I can’t get a thought in edgeways
You’re spinning me around the room
In every little thing I do
I keep the frame focused on you
Don’t want to be your dead weight
But I’m hook and eye attached to you
Honey, won’t you cut me loose
Then maybe you’ll get a thought in edgeways too

Trying to talk over
Tell you that it’s over
You’re not the one that got away
You’re just getting in the way

Now I can’t get a thought in edgeways
You’re spinning me around the room
In every little thing I do
I keep the frame focused on you
Don’t want to be your dead weight
But I’m hook and eye attached to you
Honey, won’t you cut me loose
Then maybe you’ll get a thought in edgeways too

I keep the frame focused on you
Honey, won’t you cut me loose
Then maybe you’ll get a thought in edgeways too
