Practical Lyrics by The Response

Escaping This Cold Rotation

2018

[Verse 1]
Feels like I’m drowning in the feedback
Lit up by mirror’s glow
I hate how quickly I can lose track
Forsaking what I know

[Pre-Chorus]
I’m gazing skyward, drifting ‘round
River wired up and down
Everything connected

I’m swimming through electric dreams
Future closer than it seems
Not what I expected

[Chorus]
Maybe we have what it takes to make it
Maybe I don’t wanna know we don’t
What would it mean if we’re both mistaken?
Let’s carry on, no one said it’s practical

[Verse 2]
I’m always waiting for the weekend
Hoping it can soothe my soul
Feels like I’m sinking at the deep end
Did I ever have control?

[Pre-Chorus]
I’m gazing skyward, drifting ‘round
River wired up and down
Everything connected

I’m swimming through electric dreams
Future closer than it seems
Not what I expected

[Chorus]
Maybe we have what it takes to make it
Maybe I don’t wanna know we don’t
What would it mean if we’re both mistaken?
Let’s carry on, no one said it’s practical

[Bridge]
I know it’s true I can be
A little much sometimes
But you’re my all, my everything

[Chorus Extended]
Maybe we have what it takes to make it
Maybe I don’t wanna know we don’t
What would it mean if we’re both mistaken?
Let’s carry on, no one said it’s practical

Maybe we have what it takes to make it
Maybe I don’t wanna know we don’t
What would it mean if we’re both mistaken?
Let’s carry on, no one said it’s practical
