La Roux, Baby Tate - Feedback Lyrics

I been keeping on the gas when I break down
I'm in here, running laps when it rains now
But I can't find relief, gotta lean back
If he can't stand to know, I want the feedback

Here's what I'm thinking of right now
I'm involved but I wanna be left out
Might swap my phone for a beeper
Tried to run from it but it cuts deeper
Recognize I got lost upriver
Hopin' I won't wanna leave, uh

I just wanna know I'm in the deep end
Get a taste for what's lying on the seabed
Baby, now I'm in the game, I wanna play along
And the kids in the park wanna sing along
Only players with the marks gotta think fast
But the players with the most make a big splash
If I hopped on way back
This time gonna clock on, stay back
Keep feeling like a kid when I'm thirty not three
Now I know the difference isn't much for me

I been keeping on the gas when I break down
I'm in here, running laps when it rains now
But I can't find relief, gotta lean back
If he can't stand to know, I want the feedback
Now I'm hearing it the most in the morning
Making sure he doesn't cancel the call and
When I know I found the keys, better keep back
If he can't stand to know, I want the feedback

Here's what I'm thinking of right now
Clock ticking, sweat dripping, can't throw in the towel
My swap my Twitter for a journal
Tried to run but I'm running into hurdles
That's why I gotta keep on jumping, it's nothing
If it's too hot in the kitchen, turn off the oven
I'm coming for everything, I need that
Baby, give me feedback
Put that pressure on a plate and you know I'ma clean that
I'm eating that like lunch, I'm pushing that, nine months
I'm stronger than I was, I'm smart as hell, no dunce
I know that they want me to fail
(Know that they want me to fail)
And I know that they hate that I'm doing damn well (yeah)

I been keeping on the gas
(Been keeping on the gas) (skrrt)
I might break down but I know (uh-huh, alright)
I'm not ever gonna crash
(Not ever gonna crash) (no, uh-uh)
I've come way too far now (that's right)

Stand still looking at me
How will I go? How will I be?
You are not strong, you are not free
You and I fail, you and I flee
Over now for five years and
How change is overtaking
If you can't find me, I will be back
Close your eyes but I wouldn't put the seat back

I been keeping on the gas when I break down
I'm in here, running laps when it rains now
But I can't find relief, gotta lean back
If he can't stand to know, I want the feedback
Now I'm hearing it the most in the morning
Making sure he doesn't cancel the call and
When I know I found the keys, better keep back
If he can't stand to know, I want the feedback

(Mhm) yeah
(Mhm) uh-huh
(Mhm) feedback
If he can't stand to know, I want the feedback (skrrt, skrt)

(Mhm) uh, uh-huh
(Mhm) yeah, yeah, uh-huh
(Mhm) uh-huh, that's right
If he can't stand to know, I want the feedback
