lyrics
alison oh alison
i keep my friends close my enemies closer
and my lovers even closer still
to my chest all locked up play my cards pretty tight
cover all the exits and practice every line
but now ive finally met my match
hes always ten steps ahead of me and science and philosophy
aint gonna save me this time
alison i never should have gone
im sorry that i left you i never should have gone
alison i estimated wrong
the angles of the axes i was balancing us on
hes a liar hes a liar hes a wizard and a spy
looking at you with those greedy eyes
and i know that you wont come back
now that hes caught me out again
what a fool what a bigot ive been
with all my theories of affection and rational intentions
i never gave you love
alison i never should have gone
im sorry that i left you id been lying all along
alison i estimated wrong
the angles of the axes i was balancing us on
alison oh alison
alison i never should have gone
im sorry that i left you id been lying all along
alison i estimated wrong
the angles of the axes i was balancing us on
oh alison i calculated wrong
the elements and accidents that i was anchored on
oh alison the stringing you along
is the single most damned selfish thing that i have ever done
i keep my friends close my enemies closer
and my lovers even closer still
to my chest all locked up play my cards pretty tight
cover all the exits and practice every line
but now ive finally met my match
hes always ten steps ahead of me and science and philosophy
aint gonna save me this time
alison i never should have gone
im sorry that i left you i never should have gone
alison i estimated wrong
the angles of the axes i was balancing us on
hes a liar hes a liar hes a wizard and a spy
looking at you with those greedy eyes
and i know that you wont come back
now that hes caught me out again
what a fool what a bigot ive been
with all my theories of affection and rational intentions
i never gave you love
alison i never should have gone
im sorry that i left you id been lying all along
alison i estimated wrong
the angles of the axes i was balancing us on
alison oh alison
alison i never should have gone
im sorry that i left you id been lying all along
alison i estimated wrong
the angles of the axes i was balancing us on
oh alison i calculated wrong
the elements and accidents that i was anchored on
oh alison the stringing you along
is the single most damned selfish thing that i have ever done
