Tame Impala - Borderline

Written by：Kevin Parker

Ahh

Gone a little far

Gone a little far this time for something'

How was I to know

How was I to know this dark emotion

We're on the borderline

Caught between the tides of pain and rapture

Possibly a sign

I'm gonna have the strangest night on sunday

There I go

Quite a show for a loner in LA​

Askin' how I managed to end up in this place

And I couldn't get away

We're on the borderline

Dangerously far and all forgiven

There's gonna be a fight

Gonna be a price to pay on monday

If you and I get comfortable

We're on the borderline on the borderline

Caught between the tides of pain and rapture

Then I saw the time saw the time

Watched it speedin' by like a train

Like a train

Will I be known and loved

Is there one that I trust

Starting to sober up

Has it been long enough

Will I be known and loved

Little closer close enough

I'm a loser loosen up

Set it free must be tough

Will I be known and loved

Is there one that I trust

If there's room room for doubt

As within as without ya'

Will I be so in love

Getting' closer close enough

Shout out to what is done

here comes the sun

Here comes the sun

Gone a little far gone a little far

This time with something

How could I have known

How was I to know this life get no shame

I said come with me outside

Need to clear my mind

This weight is crushing

Do you see the light oh

Coming from their eyes oh no

And I couldn't get away

We're on the borderline

Gets me every time

These close encounters

Just to know I can

Just to know I can

Once again I am alone

Will I be known and loved

Is there one that I trust

Starting to sober up

Has it been long enough

Will I be known and loved

Little closer close enough

I'm a loser loosen up

Set it free must be tough I was fine without 'ya

Will I be known and loved

La really messed me up

And it isn't cut and dry

Conversation well I tried I was fine without 'ya

Will I be stay right here

Any closer bad idea

Shout out to what is done

here comes the sun I was fine without 'ya

Will I be known and loved

Is there one that I trust

Starting to sober up

Has it been long enough
