Makeshift Temporary Lyrics by Kate Stephenson

2017

[Verse 1]
He grew up on the seventeenth floor
And looked down at the wind
No one to love and no one who loved him
Somewhere, he went wrong
As time touched the sun
And new words met his tongue
Too young to be old, but too old to be young

[Pre-Chorus]
He turned to the darkness
And gave it his faith
Took hold of his life
And then threw it away

[Chorus]
He's got a heart
He's got a million reasons to follow it
From the start
He's been looking to believe in something othеr than a
Makeshift temporary
Life's a littlе scary
So he takes off and flies

[Verse 2]
Spends all of his time
Out on the run
Terrified, made so many enemies
Of just for fun

[Pre-Chorus]
He turned to the stops
And gave it his faith
Took hold of his life
And then threw it away
I remember him saying

[Chorus]
He's got a heart
And he's got a million reasons to follow it
From the start
He's been looking to believe in something other than a
Makeshift temporary
Life's a little scary
So he takes off and flies

[Breakdown]
He's got a heart
It's one in a million, and he's got to follow it
From the start
He's been looking to believe in something other than a

[Chorus]
Makeshift temporary
Life's a little scary
Makeshift temporary, makeshift temporary
Makeshift temporary
Life's a little scary
Makeshift temporary, makeshift temporary
Makeshift temporary
Life's a little scary
Makeshift temporary, makeshift temporary
Makeshift temporary
Life's a little scary
Makeshift temporary, makeshift temporary
