lyrics
Op shop cool hides private school, yeah you’re doing alright
You got the confidence of someone who can walk the street at night
I’m glad that you can walk alone, cause times up now and I’m full grown
And I’m not gonna wait for you
I sometimes think that you’re a lot like me
You say things out loud that you don’t think, so you can see what they sound like
Head’s in a dream and your body’s in reality
And you don’t know which one’s the real you any more
I sometimes wish that you and I could take a minute
To pour a glass and have the time to drink what’s in it
But I’m not looking out my rear view, I won’t see you any time soon
And I know just how you wanna be
Oh so exceptional, and independently
Pay back your mother, and your brother, show your whole community
You never needed them at all
And I can’t lie that it’s a far cry from this life
Of 2for1 meal deals with a beer on Tuesday night
And I don’t know if I’m happy, or if I’ve just forgotten how to fight
But there’s nothing left to dream for any more
I sometimes wish that you and I could take a minute
To learn the chords, and sing until the final lyric
But I’m not looking out my rear view, I won’t see you any time soon
And if I’m honest you’re running circles around me
I would have given anything to live inside your dream
But now I’m standing in one place, I can see both of your faces
Yeah I see them so clearly
And if I’m honest you’re running circles around me
I would have given anything to live inside your dream
But now I’m standing in one place, I can see both of your faces
And I know exactly where I wanna be
