lyrics

It’s everywhere I turn
It’s in the air around me
And everything I touch
loses it’s colour with time

I’m Midas in reverse
I lay bare all your nerves
Yeah your shine will surely fade

But am I bringing you down
'Cause I don’t mean to
And I don’t want to

Am I bringing you down
'Cause I don’t mean to
And I don’t want to

Your eyes, your smile
They sparkled
Pretty girl
Look at you now

Oh promises
I’m too afraid to make
Look at you now

It’s me, I’m bringing you down
Though I don’t mean to
And I don’t want to

It's me I’m bringing you down
Though I don’t mean to
And I don’t want to

But there’s nothing I can do

You should’ve never let me touch you
I’m Midas in reverse
I lay bare all that hurts

You should have never let me near you
I lay bare all your nerves
And hit you where it hurts
I am Midas in reverse
Midas in reverse
