lyrics

I can tell from the way my skin feels that it’s getting burned
I can tell from your face, you think I’m speaking out of turn
I’m so lost in this silly circle, I can’t even see
Until I find in my gaze a lost and lonely honey bee

Do you ever feel like the star in someone else’s play
When single moments seem so dramatic in every single way
Unseen directors are watching, planning, every small detail
Whoever you are, you’re brilliant. But you know me much too well

And just as I feel my mind caught in this round-a-bout
I watch the poor honey bee turn circles on the ground
The burning white concrete is no place for honey bees
Looking at him, I feel so guilty, cause I think he’s there just for me
To see

Do you ever feel like your life is written like a book
Complete with allusions, symbols, signs and catchy hooks
I wonder who knows me well enough to write my heart
Maybe only my honey bee has been with me from the start
