Local Natives - Shy lyrics

Sometimes I don't understand Why you want me to Sometimes it takes the right plan To get less confused Went for a moment but it's never right You lean over and whisper, "Baby, don't be shy" Take another minute, Carla, are you sure? Maybe I can be a mirror for your pleasure Shy under the weight of design Afraid and able Shy under the weight of design Afraid and able Diving under the sheets Under rainbow lights It was more like a cage We were forced to fight Remember when you gave me a vial of your blood? I hid it in my closet until I gave you up Sitting on a roof above a flooded city I know I shouldn't stare, Carla, but you're so pretty Shy under the weight of design Tame turning into the wine I see but don't recognize Afraid and able Shy Shy What would you have me say God, it's a perfect safe It's been thirty years and now I feel right How did we get this way? How did we get this way? How did we get this way? (Shy under the weight of design) (Tame turning into the wine) (I see but don't recognize) (Afraid and able)
