This Child Lyrics by Baked Goods

One of Those Things

2014

[Verse 1]
Inquisitive eyes stare back through
These bits of broken glass
Does he not know exactly where his life is going yet?
And who does he think he is?
Well he is no one
Let’s make sure he knows it
We’ll beat him down
Down to the ground
This mass grave grows bigger now
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, well isn’t this us?
Oh, well isn’t this we?
Struggling to keep our heads down and out
Of scrutiny
[Chorus]
Well I don’t care anymore
There’s gotta be more to this, love
You can’t ignore
The little world outside much bigger than us all
Life is ringing now
Answer the call
Can’t you feel it?
This little bit of hope that we’ve been granted
I’m going to take it now
And make it my own before I’m gone
If you disagree
Well, baby, that’s just fine with me
This child just needs some room to breathe
And in time I’ll find
Some harmony
[Verse 2]
This child is not innocent, but
He’s probably closer to the truth than us
We’re blinded by words
And views over things of all that we can’t change
And what about when it’s all said and done?
With the lights dimming out
Will you look back on the things you missed out on?
Couldn’t break the rules
Go out and capture the sun
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Oh, well isn’t this us?
Oh, well isn’t this we?
Downtrodden and emptied out and floating
Out to sea
[Chorus]
Well I don’t care anymore
There’s gotta be more to this, love
You can’t ignore
The little world outside much bigger than us all
Life is ringing now
Answer the call
Can’t you feel it?
This little bit of hope that we’ve been granted
I’m going to take it
And make it my own before I’m gone
If you disagree
Well, baby, that’s just fine with me
This child just needs some room to breathe
And in time I’ll find
Some harmony
