about

Most of the Time is the first single from Siv's latest body of work.

lyrics

I fly high as a kite
Just so I can sleep alright
‘Cause I keep dreaming of you not leaving

Your face flickers and fades
In and out, it’s a blunted blade
I glue my eyes together but that’s not better

I wanna know what it feels like to be alone without you in my mind
I wanna know what it feels like to dream a dream without you hanging around, circling
Around in my head, around in my head, around in my head

Black and white films on repeat
Of you and I in an empty street
You spit, spray: gloom, profanity and rage

I wanna know what it feels like to be alone without you in my mind
I wanna know what it feels like to dream a dream without you hanging around, circling
Around in my head, around in my head, around in my head

He wakes, holds me close
He is all I want to know
We are forever and I am better
Most of the time
