[Verse 1]
I work through all these corners of chaos
One at a time
Unraveling their hold on my lethargy
On my sanity, on my mind
And I'm probably losing fortune
And these butterflies have lost receipts
And my wardrobe that heaves with unworn clothes
Or the bank cards that I've lost down the sofa seats
Like the memories of what I could have been
Fast receding
[Chorus]
Oh, May day
May day
Swinging on the green hinge of the year
Oh, May day
May day
The best day to clear out the cupboards
Clear out my head
Put you in storage
Forgеt that I ever said anything
Ever said anything
Clеar it out
Start again
[Verse 2]
One might say, you're a corner of chaos
In the attic of my mind
And you run like a silent old movie
I've been trying my whole life to rewind
And I feel stuck in this film about someone
And this someone, it isn't me
It's a life, riddled with deceit
And when I try to escape from the screen
I get shoved in the back row
Eating someone else's popcorn far too slowly
[Chorus]
Oh, May day
May day
Swinging on the green hinge of the year
Oh, May day
May day
The best day to clear out the cupboards
Clear out my head
Put you in storage
Forget that I ever said anything
Ever said anything
Ever said anything
Ever said anything
Clear it out
And start again
