Minefield from Anderson Shelter by Linburn

It could happen so easy but it won't
There's something between us but don't
Linger by the window too long
I should turn down that love song

And find cold water for my face
I need a reason to turn away
You say your head is a minefield
That's just music to my minefield

In better health we'd both be somewhere else
I don't belong here and you can tell
There are locked doors in your eyes
I almost ask to be let inside

To mix your minefield up with mine

You've no faith in what you find in the mirror
Well look at me duct-taped together
You tell me every day feels the same
Living like an observer has the reigns

But confetti cannons are going off
Every time we almost touch
I worry some vital spark has withered
Just as there's always something slipping between your fingers

So mix your minefield up with mine
See what we fix, see what we find
Ah, mix your minefield up with mine
We still know how to be kind

Come mix your minefield up with mine
And let our old selves breathe tonight
Come mix your minefield up with mine
There'll never be a perfect time
