History sits in a chair at the table listening to everything

I have to say

She doesn't know that I long to be able to follow danger to go astray

And I am an actor she is the audience

I am a legend in my own mind

Everything I can't say is irrelevant

Everything I don't have mine this time

History sits on a bench in the garden watching the children picking the flowers

She doesn't konw that

I long to be able to possess ancient magical powers

And I am an actor she is the audience

I am a legend in my own mind

Everything I can't say is irrelevant

Everything I don't have mine this time

There's a mouse that's trapped in the wall by the kitchen and it

Keeps me up in the middle of the night and it's

Clawing it's way to freedom – putting up a very impressive fight

Oh to be a creature so small oh to have the dignity to know

There must be a way out of this if I just find the right tunnel

Take me down to the fire-breathing waterbed

Tie me up with imaginary string and

Calm my nerves by pretending to be soothing soothing

History sits in a chair at the table listening to everything I have to say

She doesn't know that I long to be able to follow danger to go astray

And I am an actor she is the audience

I am a legend in my own mind

Everything I can't say is irrelevant

Everything I don't have mine this time

This time it's gonna be different

I'm gonna start telling you the truth

I'll give you my word as my word as

I am an actor she is the audience

She is the audience she is the audience
