Текст песни
Why did I always seem to implode when emotions overflowed
The default was always to run in the past, camouflaged self sabotage
Put away the stick you used to beat
yourself with, there's enough who'll do that for you
Whistle in the wind and dance to the child
you were now you can finally run wild again
We live and we learn and we love
We live and we learn and we love
How do you fully express your mind
when your throat feels like a trap door
There is progress in the knowing and the facing too
Perfectionism is fear dressed up in a
suit and as a human I'm prone to forgetting
When the emperor was wearing new clothes
was nobody brave enough to ask him for a light?
We live we learn we love
Through the thought crime and the
war crime and the spiritual life blood
We live we learn we live through the
clichés and the DJs saying okay let's go
We live and we learn and we love
A safety pin through your ear holds you together and makes you feel
great a torn jacket and a packet of give us one of them there super
king sized mate a redemptive tale from a great estate contemplative
kids on great escapes you watch us grow Borstal boy at heart with a
raging soul like a Dylan Thomas peroxide girl brat summer is a term
you'd spit at let's be honest we live we learn we love from the hair
straighteners to the boxing glove your the salt of the earth when
you've chalk in your bag but your new best friend is a scaldy scab
cut me open let's start a band I inked those words on both of my
hands the physical relief from emotional pain hysterical laughter in
the plastic rain and the shame of wanting the fame of wanting success
of wanting a name of playing the game of wanting to blame no it's not
the way let's pull down the cranes and build up some bases where
enchanted mechanical beasts will protect all our wages for ages and
ages CBT or CBD which one works for you and me I left my head in the
clouds for a while but came back down at the ideal time self
