lyrics
If you could be me, you’d see it. but as it is now it’s secret,
And I follow you home
Keep treading water or drown,
Because it’s hard to break the surface when no one’s around
To keep you afloat
So come rest your troubles and lay down,
And chin up kid
Speak to the world as you see fit,
But just don’t give me all that bullshit-
Hold your tongue
They keep the streets so shiny,
But when you walk them you’re tiny
So stand up tall, don’t stoop and crawl
Just when you think that you’ve got it,
The rug’s pulled away and you’re back
To square one again
Soaked to the skin and you’re heavy,
Because the world’s clinging on and you’re not ready
For this sort of thing,
So chin up kid
There’s something you did, so chin up kid
Need to get out of this bubble, all that surrounds me- it’s rubble
But I’ll stick around here for now, so chin up kid
There’s something you did, so chin up kid,
There’s something you did, so chin up kid
