lyrics

Whenever I’m walking down the street, I turn around
Whenever I see you mild
Whenever I’m talking with my teeth, I grind them down
Whenever I see you mild

It’s alright now, just be K
Just say you promise I’m not afraid yet
Whenever I see you mild

Remember when I left you in the leaves?
I burned the ground
Forever it’s been a while
If I could leave this time and place, I’ll stick around
Whenever I see you mild

I don’t want to walk that way
OK, I’m not afraid that you won’t win
I’m so afraid that

You will lock again, I will knock again
You will lock again, I will knock again
You will lock again, I will knock again
You will lock again, you will never knock again

Whenever I see you mild

Many years ago I knew you but I do not wish that we’d never met before this I’d be one to talk to you and me both so happy in this house where we met A100 colored couches rain purple golden hues across face I’d forgotten how to sing but you taught me all those days I missed you.
