It's a pretty recent song, but I've listened to it A LOT. Anyway, I realised that I really only knew partly what he was saying. Yorke's voice is pretty quiet & mellow is this song so it can be hard to make out. Regardless, I was not disappointed.

Ingenue - Atoms for Peace:

    You know like the back of your hand

    Who let em in

    You got me into this mess so

    You get me out

    You know like the back of your hand

    Your bell jar

    Your collection

    Ingenue

    You get me into this mess

    Fools rushing in, yeah

    And they know it

    The seeds of the dandelion you blow away

    In good time, I hope, I pray

    If I'm not there now physically

    I'm always before you

    Come what may

    And you know it

    Fools rushing in

    Yeah, well you know it

    Who let them in?

    Yeah, well you know it

    Gone with a touch of your hand

    Gone with a touch of your hand

    Move through the moment

    Though it betrays

    Transformations

    Jackals and flames

    If I knew now

    What I knew then

    Just give me more time

    I hope and pray

    I mistake all you say

    The seeds of the dandelion you blow away
