Been A While Lyrics by Wheelwright

2021

[Chorus]
I'm tired of being tired
And I wish I was home
Getting faded with all my friends
People I know
Been a while since I've been around
It's been a while since I've been in town

[Verse 1]
I'm disguised as a runaway
Mama told me yesterday
Son, you never been the type to ever skip town
It's cold up in Calgary
I'm cooler than I ought to be
This girl laying next to me
She's talkin' 'bout love
Said I like you, I like you, I like you
I love you, she said
I like you, I like you, I like you
With all your regrets
So don't you evеr fucking leave

[Chorus]
But I'm tired of bеing tired
And I wish I was home
Getting faded with all my friends
People I know
Been a while since I've been around
It's been a while since I've been in town

[Verse 2]
My friends on the telephone
Tell me I'm a stranger now
They're hearing shit about me
And they always want to know
I'm scared to admit it
I pretend to be indifferent
But I really fucking wish
That they could hear this crowd yell
They say we like you, we like you, we like you
We love you, they rage
We like you, we like you, we like you
We love you on stage
So don't you ever fucking leave it

[Chorus]
But I'm tired of being tired
And I wish I was home
Getting faded with all my friends
People I know
Been a while since I've been around
It's been a while since I've been in town

[Chorus]
I'm tired of being tired
And I wish I was home
Getting faded with all my friends
People I know
Been a while since I've been around
It's been a while since I've been in town
It's been a while since I've been around
It's been a while since I've been in town
Ohhh
Mmmm

[Bridge]
Maybe it's too real but aren't we afraid to say that we hate
Who we are and we are who we hate
Yeah
Who we are
Who we hate
Who we love
Who we hate
Who we love
Who we hate
It's who we love
It's who we love
It's who we hate
It's who we love
It's who we love
Whoa

[Outro]
It's who we love
It's who we love
It's who we love
It's who we love
It's who we love
It's who we love
