Plastic 100°C - Sampha
Written by: Sampha Sisay
Magnetic lights in the blue high haze
A magnifying glass upon my face
It's so hot I've been melting out here
I'm made out of plastic out here
You touched down in the base of my fears
Houston can can can you hear
And we both had to harness our pain
Close it and hope it decays
Oh in heaven I'm up and away
Up and away
I loved those mornings when the sun's up
Smoking in the lobby waiting for my name to pop up yeah pop up
Usually I'd run home and tuck the issue under
Oh sleeping with my worries yeah
I didn't really know what that lump was my luck
It's so hot I've been melting out here
I'm made out of plastic out here
You touched down in the base of my fears
And that's when your beauty appears
It's so hot I've been melting out here
I'm made out of plastic out here
You touched down in the base of my fears
Houston can can can you hear me now
You dare know what the scarecrow hears
It's like outer space in his inner ears
And like a blossom you opened up
And understood why you could not love oh
It's so hot I've been melting out here
I'm made out of plastic out here
You touched down in the base of my fears
Houston can can can you hear
I've been melting melting down here
I'm made out of plastic out here
You touched down in the base of my fears
Houston can can can you hear me no
Sky high deflating ideas
Thriving of your lessons yes you are my lantern
A shy light curves around my ears
The more you speak the more I see
The more your lights grows upon me
And the more it grows the closer I think you are
The closer I think you are
To seeing me whole
But if you don't like what you see silhouettes inside of dreams
And I'm melting from the light
One drip at a time
I'm melting from the light
One drip one drip at a time
