(I've got (I've got)
Zero clue (zero clue)
I’m not (I'm not)
Who I used to be (used to be)
Bring out (bring out)
That lighting (that lighting)
In my (in my)
Surroundings (surroundings))
(they won’t take you down
None of you on the ground now
Break the horrors down
Cuz there’s only wonders now)
Lights off, lights off, lights off, out
I’d trail through this much better if I didn’t have a doubt about
What it is exactly that is running through my head
I could write this down on paper but I’m suffering instead
Lights off, lights off, who are you now?
If you were unsure before, you sure as hell are now
And sure as hell you’re unsure about what your mind is about
I’ll set you back another day when things start creeping to the now
Wolves don’t roar, they howl and cry
For reasons that I’m scared about so won’t ask why
But these lions don’t cry, they roar in vain
Cos your pride in yourself doesn’t take so much to gain!
Turn the lights out, make me feel like that again
Make it dark out, so I can wallow in my pain
And then I’ll forget who it was to blame (maybe I’m to blame?)
But I’m the one to blame, nice try hun, do try again
And again and again, I could do this all night
I can live the night shift but couldn’t live by daylight
I’m nocturnal, did I give you all a fright?
I only come out weekends, with friends, I’d better salvage the night
Wolves don’t roar, they howl and cry
For reasons that I’m scared about so won’t ask why
But these lions don’t cry, they roar in vain
Cos your pride in yourself doesn’t take so much to gain!
Breaking from my place now
Maybe it’s not worth it but
It’s way too late now anyway
I’ve been hiding from the light
Planning out my great escape
Somebody help me escape
(somebody help me escape!)
Somebody help me escape
Cover me in face paint
Neon streaks all on my face
Streaks can help me to embrace
With them I can hide my face
Hoping I can find my place
Cos there’s only wonders now
Cos there’s only wonders
Now
I’m breaking from my shell of doubt
I’m making myself clear and loud
I’m sure there’s only wonders now
I’m sure, I’m sure, I’m sure
Wolves don’t roar, they howl and cry
For reasons that I’m scared about so won’t ask why
But these lions don’t cry, they roar in vain
Cos your pride in yourself doesn’t take so much to gain!
(they won’t take you down) wolves don’t roar, they howl and cry
(none of you on the ground now) for reasons that I’m scared about so won’t ask why
(break the horrors down) but these lions don’t cry, they roar in vain
(cos there’s only wonders now) cos your pride in yourself doesn’t take so much to gain!
(i think mortality’s, like
I think it’s an interesting one
Um
Like the feeling that you could do anything, the feeling that you could
Like
Crush life itself in your bare feet
Um
Contradicting with what you can actually do
And the abilities that you have, I think
It’s like
A case of deciding whether you want to actually take action
Knowing that you can’t, or just admit defeat
Uuuum
Or, if you want to do something with the things that you have
You know, I could probably take those screenshots of the messages you sent
And then put it on a t shirt
I could go and get some bourbon creams but I don’t think we have any, uh
I think there’s some shortbread downstairs
But tha-that’s about it
That’s it
I think
But that’s just life in the end, uh
That was my ted talk, if you have any, uh, questions, uuh
I would ask them before we hand out the refreshments
If anybody’s actually gonna go for them)
