Another day, another morning, another hour in my bed curled up in a ball Take a shower, take a moment, take forever to decide if there’s really enough time I want to know what it is I’m waiting for I wonder what it’s like to be so sure of yourself And I know I have no idea – and I cannot find the time to try I’ll just write a song and pretend...Learn More

Walking faster just to spite yourself All we know is it’s not in the interest of our health And we tried to say hello we tried to find some other way out I can’t see it anymore, what I saw before Walking on a line, we are running out of time I can see the distance now I’m impossible on Wednesday nights and Friday mornings And I like going to bed...Learn More
