lyrics

Are you struggling now to write anything down that’s of note? Keep on scribbling it out, keep on pressing delete and it goes
Still, you try for a song for some reason that you only knows but you forgot what it was so now you have very little control

And all you wanted was a voice to be heard but soon came to realise that that’s not how the world works

Keep on listening out for a tune to channel through you but all your favourites are tired, and besides, they just wouldn’t do
You want to smash your guitar, want to cry like a child in your room but no, that’s not going to work and that’s the God-honest truth

And all you wanted was a voice to be heard but soon came to realise that that’s not how the world works

And you can question yourself again: is anything worthwhile that you’ve ever said?
And why do you bury the truth of the message that you’re always trying to say?
Why can you never be honest with yourself that way?
Try. Try to play it straight….

All you wanted was a voice to be heard but soon came to realise that that’s not how the world works

It’s like your therapist said, you’ll be winding up dead on your back so look elsewhere instead, don’t continue to tread on this path
And you’re looking around while you’re laid on the couch of her bed --- yeah, she’s ever so good but you’re like, “get out of my head”

Because all you wanted was a voice to be heard but soon came to realise that that’s not how the world works
