Prodigies Lyrics by Socha

2017

I tried to raise the children
Couldn't figure out what to name 'em
I tried to be a sculptor
Couldn't make a sphere couldn't make a David
Tried playing the game
Couldn't separate and remain shameless
I tried being famous
Couldn't generate a cult and remain stainless

I tried to hold ya'
I tried to make ya'
I took a risk
I tried to take ya'
You left there at the train station
Couldn't bring myself to serenade ya'

'Cuz I want to be like prodigies
But I'm too old for prophecies
At night I'm told that all is calm
But my insides turn to atom bombs
I want to be like prodigies
But I'm too old for prophecies
At night I'm told that all is calm
But my insides turn to atom bombs

Tried setting aside for myself some space
Built walls around me just to escape
I invested in a golden watch
Now I'm always on the run I'm always late
Thinking of monsters in the night
There's nothing to win if there isn't a fight
You can run yeah you can hide
But that's escape that isn't life

I want to be like prodigies
But I'm too old for prophecies
At night I'm told that all is calm
But my insides turn to atom bombs
I want to be like prodigies
But I'm too old for prophecies
At night I'm told that all is calm
But my insides turn to atom bombs

You cry to be
Out of control so the blames on me
I want to fix you
Why must I remain a target?
You're scared and bound to fall
You play the part and I absorb it all
I want to fix you
Why must I hold it all?
Hold it all
Hold it all
Hold it all
Hold it all
Hold it all
