Ampersand Lyrics by Nuburo

Lieder

2015

[Verse 1: Oisin McHugh]
So here we are
On the end of our beginning
Why do we end up winning
In this game, constrained again
Pushing ourselves to the limit
Everything was true, I meant it
[Pre-Chorus: Oisin McHugh]
It's hard to understand
What makes us who we are
When it all falls into plan
It's simple in the end
But complicated all the same
And we could find a way
[Chorus: Oisin McHugh]
To save ourselves
From being so alone
From finding out the wrong things down the line
To save ourselves
From what we haven't known
From letting go, to leave it all behind
To save ourselves
[Verse 2: Leon Cox]
So here we are
Stuck inside our own idea
Why do we always fear
What we'll gain, constrained again
Giving ourselves restrictive rules
Deep inside we know we're fools
[Pre-Chorus: Leon Cox & Oisin McHugh]
It's hard to understand
What makes us who we are
When it all falls into plan
It's simple in the end
But complicated all the same
And we could find a way
[Chorus: Leon Cox & Oisin McHugh]
To save ourselves
From being so alone
From finding out the wrong things down the line
To save ourselves
From what we haven't known
From letting go, to leave it all behind
To save ourselves
[Bridge: Oisin McHugh]
Yeah
Back in the days of VCRs and tape recorders
Back in time to ninety-nine and a few good years before it
Back in the days of fantasy, fragments of a younger me
Back in time to paradise, it's crystal clear and sparkling
This was my childhood, see, none of this real world bullshit
Just a carefree kid, with a real big wish, gotta have a lotta fun and cherish it
Puddle jumping in the rain, after school Nintendo games
Scraping a knee, in so much pain, patched up, got back on the bike again
Later on, school was a bitch, but I still stuck it out, got it over with
People tried to drag me down, but I never really gave half a shit
They were only sad and lonely, driven by their jealousy
I was hoping it would stop, but that's what I got for being me
Assignments due, time it flew, lost my chance with a girl I knew
"She's not in your league" they said, I felt like I was better off dead
Since that day, a lot a changed, got a job now, got bills to pay
Got a new girl but it ain't the same, I wanna go back to those days
[Chorus: Leon Cox & Oisin McHugh]
To save ourselves
From being so alone
From finding out the wrong things down the line
To save ourselves
From what we haven't known
From letting go, to leave it all behind
To save ourselves
From being so alone
From finding out the wrong things down the line
To save ourselves
From what we haven't known
From letting go, to leave it all behind (to save ourselves)
To save ourselves
From being so alone
From finding out the wrong things down the line
To save ourselves
From what we haven't known
From letting go, to leave it all behind
To save ourselves
Oisin John, J. Silk, L. Cox
