Bloc Party This Is Not A Competition Lyrics

This is not a competition,
You will see when I am full,
Can’t you see that I am trying,
Loving thee has twisted all,
I made a vow to carry you home,
If you fall sick if you pass out,
I made a vow to rescue you
If you’re in trouble, if you flip out. If you need trust, I’ll stand by you.

What was it you could not tell me?
Why are there scars on your arms?
What are you running away from?
Why have all the clocks stopped?

If you need trust, I’ll stand by you.
