I
wanna see the sun
I wanna let go of my eyes and watch 'em float up
but I
feel like giving up
I
feel like giving up
I've got a few more drags on this cigarette butt
but I
wanna feel the sun
I mean I'm warm but I gotta admit
It's still not enough
When it's over I'll sink back to the ground
hit the earth and fall apart
float to the surface, my heads not coming round
so come back down
come back down oh
You don't know why never knows it best
you'll get it one way or another
don't believe the lies you tell your friends
you'll get caught up in the whirlwind
You
say you think I'm cool
I've got a five dollar bill
that says you're a fool
but I
don't wanna be a fool
I don't care who you tell about me
I'm through being cool
When it's over I'll sink back to the ground
hit the earth and fall apart
float to the surface, my heads not coming round
so come back down
come back down oh
You don't know why never knows it best
you'll get it one way or another
don't believe the lies you tell your friends
you'll get caught up in the whirlwind
My palms still sting
'cause I'm the pirate king
just took the bat and swing it out the park.
It's such an awful thing
to feel a lingering
sense of "will I make it far?"
It's too late
I'm drowning
my lungs are filling up
maybe I'm
just falling down
Whoooaaaaaaa
