I can’t risk it to fall for you
Time for a new approach
Get distracted with someone new
Just don’t get attached to you

My desperation, instant manifestation
I’m irradiated, contaminated
I don’t care who’s watching
Nothing can stop me, I’m on my way, on my way

I’m on my way
From one thing to the next
Don’t have a choice, I relapse 
Why would I wanna do a thing like that
To obsess over you
That’s exactly what I’m gonna do

I got myself hypnotised 
Don’t have a choice, hands are tied  
I really need an escape 
Imma change my strategy 
Staying busy overwriting my memory with other men 

I could feel your heart beating
It’s kinda sweet that I made you sweat
I really wish they’d never fade
The traces you’ve left behind 

My desperation, instant manifestation
I’m irradiated, contaminated
No signs of insecurity 
I’m the wanted one, changed my strategy 

I got myself hypnotised 
Don’t have a choice, hands are tied  
I really need an escape 
Imma change my strategy 
Staying busy overwriting my memory with other men 

I like me better with the mask off
But I play that game with you baby 
Cause I work like that

Amsterdam / Berlin

Lying with you on a sun bed at night
The stars in the sky send sparkles like rain down on earth
Like fairies that secretly dance in the shadows of jade  

Can’t remember the day or what we have done
I’m in this moment with you 
Full as the moon 

Tomorrow we gotta be somewhere but I forgot 
I’m in this moment with you
In this moment with you time has stopped

Next to you on a sun bed at night
With nothing on but a blanket
Full as the moon 
I’m in this moment with you 

Drifting away into a half sleep state
Did we hallucinate the dawn chorus
In the shadows of jade? 
No sense of how early or late 
Have I ever not been with you
In the shadows of jade?

Shadows Of Jade

What is taking you so long?
I’m not asking you to be mine

You saw me dancing 
I’m still high and I don’t wanna come down

Can I have you alone?
Tired of checking my phone for your text back 

Boy, you don’t know what you’re missing 
Don’t keep a girl like me waiting 

You can say no

If you say no
That’s better than nothing
Just say so 

What is taking you so long?
I’m not asking you to be mine

What Is Taking You So Long?

I could be crying cause I’m leaving Berlin
Wanna be your siren and not your friend
Your goodbyes, I can’t stand them 
Your “see you later” makes me a madwoman
Makes me a madwoman

Oh no they’re bouncing back, my top secret fixations 
They show up unannounced, make me live in my imagination 
I need an escape, safe escape 

It’s been so long, didn’t miss it 
About to come what I want gone
But it’s quicker than I am it’s gonna fuck me up again  
I need an escape, safe escape 

It really is pathetic, I’m searching for the red flags 
Although I know I’m blind
The only thing I find is your dog’s hair on my pants 
I could be crying cause I did it again
Instead of myself, I should be lying to men  
I should be lying to them

It’s been so long, didn’t miss it 
About to come what I want gone
But it’s quicker than I am it’s gonna fuck me up again  
I need an escape, safe escape 

When I close my eyes
I see something that you don’t know

Berlin / Amsterdam

I can’t be with you now 
I can’t be with you now
I gotta let you down 

I can’t be with you now
I can’t be with you now
I won’t disappoint myself anymore 

Just when I thought I’ve been landing, I’m coming up again
Your scent still lingers on my coat, you’re the hero

Just when I thought I’ve forgotten, it’s popping up again
But now that I know, it doesn’t do the trick anymore

Don’t know if I’ll make it till two
Been spending way too much time on you
