lyrics
Everyday I’m working on being me and not conforming
I push the boundaries from safe and sound cos I’ve seen the grass on the other side
It’s so much greener than this underwhelming place that we call home
I walk these streets with my eyes closed, the path embedded long ago.
It’s always raining in my home, and I’m soaked right to the bone.
Don’t wanna say it, I hold my breath and try to figure this one out
Become acquainted, with this piece of mind that leaves me wishing I was dead
You know we’ll never get better weather so I’ll aspire for better
But good things come to those who don’t give up.
You may think it’s just a dream and everyday I’m wondering
How you just sit back, heart slack and appreciate all that’s fucking fake.
So don’t try and make out life’s lost its meaning, cos it's true if you concede it
I’m gonna leave this town, so hear these words announced
There’s more to life than work and sleeping.
Don’t wanna say it, I hold my breath and try to figure this one out
Become acquainted, with this piece of mind that leaves me wishing I was dead
You know we’ll never get better weather so I’ll aspire for better
But good things come to those who don’t give up.
And I’ve waited every fucking day, night after night I lie awake,
I won’t let this slip away, I may bend but I won’t ever break.
Don’t wanna say it, I hold my breath and try to figure this one out
Become acquainted, with this piece of mind that leaves me wishing I was dead
You know we’ll never get better weather so I’ll aspire for better
But good things come to those who don’t give up.
I push the boundaries from safe and sound cos I’ve seen the grass on the other side
It’s so much greener than this underwhelming place that we call home
I walk these streets with my eyes closed, the path embedded long ago.
It’s always raining in my home, and I’m soaked right to the bone.
Don’t wanna say it, I hold my breath and try to figure this one out
Become acquainted, with this piece of mind that leaves me wishing I was dead
You know we’ll never get better weather so I’ll aspire for better
But good things come to those who don’t give up.
You may think it’s just a dream and everyday I’m wondering
How you just sit back, heart slack and appreciate all that’s fucking fake.
So don’t try and make out life’s lost its meaning, cos it's true if you concede it
I’m gonna leave this town, so hear these words announced
There’s more to life than work and sleeping.
Don’t wanna say it, I hold my breath and try to figure this one out
Become acquainted, with this piece of mind that leaves me wishing I was dead
You know we’ll never get better weather so I’ll aspire for better
But good things come to those who don’t give up.
And I’ve waited every fucking day, night after night I lie awake,
I won’t let this slip away, I may bend but I won’t ever break.
Don’t wanna say it, I hold my breath and try to figure this one out
Become acquainted, with this piece of mind that leaves me wishing I was dead
You know we’ll never get better weather so I’ll aspire for better
But good things come to those who don’t give up.
