Crowds are forming, everyone gets in my way.
Head high I stride, words I say.
Confidence I blame you every day.
Maybe I was the one who'd gone away.
Take back the light that we stole from the day.
Moons high, I lie, words I say.
Not sure I should blame you any way.
Maybe I was the one who'd gone away.
Some of the days you wanted me.
Other days you hated me.
Some of the times I needed you but,
most of the times I lied to you.
Top dead centre, I have arrived.
Not sure if I should climb or dive.
Pressure and lust lead the ride.
If only I had you by my side.
Some of the days you wanted me.
Other days you hated me.
Some of the times I needed you but,
most of the times I lied to you.
It goes on, and on, and on, and on you know.
