So this is what you meant
When you said that you were spent
And now it's time to build
From the bottom of the pit
Right to the top
Don't hold back
Packing my bags and giving the academy a raincheck
I don't ever wanna let you down
I don't ever wanna leave this town
Cause after all
This city never sleeps at night
It's time to begin
Isn't it
I get a little bit
Bigger but then
I'll admit
I'm just the same as I was
Now don't you understand
I'm never changing who I am
So this is where you fell
And I am left to sell
The path to heaven
Runs through miles
Of crowded hell
Right to the top
Don't look back
Turning to rags and giving
The commodities
A raincheck
I don't ever wanna let you down
I don't ever wanna leave this town
Cause after all
This city never sleep at night
It's time to begin
Isn't it
I get a little bit
Bigger but then
I'll admit
I'm just the same as I was
Now don't you understand
I'm never changing who I am
It's time to begin
Isn't it
I get a little bit
Bigger but then
I'll admit
I'm just the same as I was
Now don't you understand
I'm never changing who I am
This road never looked so lonely
This house doesn't burn down slowly
To ashes
To ashes
It's time to begin
Isn't it
I get a little bit
Bigger but then
I'll admit
I'm just the same as I was
Now don't you understand
I'm never changing who I am

Throw your cards to the wind
You woke up on the floor again
Puking in waste bins
How'd you get so wasted
Did you know that you'd be alright
Did you know that you'd be fine
Everything is so damn fast
I can't even catch my breath
I'm nervous
Everything is so damn slow
I feel like I'm losing control
I'm nervous
Don't forget to smile darling
The world's in the pal of your hands
Try darling
To understand
Laugh darling
The race ain't over yet
Try your
best not to forget
You'll find your way
You'll find your place
Everything is so damn fast
I can't even catch my breath
I'm nervous
Everything is so damn slow
I feel like I'm losing control
I'm nervous
So don't forget
To hold your breath
Don't forget
To watch your step
Everything is so damn fast
I can't even catch my breath
I'm nervous
Everything is so damn slow
I feel like I'm losing control
I'm nervous

Possessions never meant anything to me
I'm not crazy
That's not true I've got a bed
And a guitar
And a dog named Bob who pisses on my floor
That's right I've got a floor
So what
So what
So what
And I've got
Pockets full of
Kleenex ad linen holes
Where everything important
To me
Seems to fall right down my leg
And on to the floor
My closest friend
Linoleum
Linoleum
Supports my head
Gives me something to believe
That's me on the beachside combing the sand
Metal meter in my hand
Sporting a pocket
Full of change
That's me on the street
With a violin
Under my chin
Playing with a grin
Singing gibberish
That's me
On the back of the bus
That's me in that cell
That's me inside your head
That's me inside your head

Riptide (Vance Joy)
03:02

I was scared
Of dentists
And the dark
I was scared
Of pretty girls
And starting conversations
All my friends are
Turning green
You're the magician's
Assistant in their dreams
They come unstuck
Lady running down
To the riptide
Taken away to the dark side
I wanna be your
Left hand man
I love you
When you're singing that song and
I gotta lump in my throat cause
You're gonna sing the words wrong
There's this movie
That I think you'll like
This guy decides to quit his job
And head to New York City
This cowboy's running from himself
And she's been living on the highest shelf
They come unstuck
Lady running down to the riptide
Taken away to the dark side
I wanna be your left hand man
I love you
When you're singing that song and
I gotta lump in my throat cause
You're gonna sing the words wrong
I just wanna
I just wanna know
If you're gonna
If you're gonna stay
I just wanna
I just wanna know
I just gotta
I just gotta
Can't have it any other way
I
Swear she's destined for the screen
Shes'
The closest thing to Michelle Pipher that you've
Ever seen
Lady running down to the riptide
Taken away to the dark side
I wanna be your left hand man
I love you
When you're singing that song and
I gotta lump in my throat cause
You're gonna sing the words wrong
Lady running down to the riptide
Taken away to the dark side
I wanna be your left hand man
I love you
When you're singing that song and
I gotta lump in my throat cause
You're gonna sing the words wrong
