I was looking for returns on investment
But it’s hard to get rich quick
Oh, and I hastened to beat the clock
I tried to race it
Swooning words were copied and pasted
But you can’t fabricate it
Heart hollowed
A tasteless pill of pride swallowed
The past’s the hardest act you can follow
But it’s because I spent life quick
Oh and I tested the theory that a heart’s arrested
Scrumptious bits of passion ingested
That felt like shit when digested
Did you think it would be easier
To live your life behind a window?
Did you think it would be easier
To risk heartbreak as a widow?
I always thought it would be easier
To search for better weather
Did you think it would be easier
To live your life behind a window?
Did you think it would be easier
To risk heartbreak as a widow?
(I could’ve gone back but I wanted more
I don’t need to be who I was before
Life’s at it's best when you brave the storms
You don’t need to be who you were before)
I always thought it would be easier
To search for better weather
Heart invested with little bouts of time vested I was looking for returns on investment But it’s hard to get rich quick Oh, and I hastened to beat the clock I tried to race it Swooning words were copied and pasted But you can’t fabricate it Heart hollowed A tasteless pill of pride swallowed The past’s the hardest act you can follow But it’s because I spent life quick Oh and I tested the theory that a heart’s arrested Scrumptious bits of passion ingested That felt like shit when digested Did you think it would be easier To live your life behind a window? Did you think it would be easier To risk heartbreak as a widow? I always thought it would be easier To search for better weather Did you think it would be easier To live your life behind a window? Did you think it would be easier To risk heartbreak as a widow? (I could’ve gone back but I wanted more I don’t need to be who I was before Life’s at it's best when you brave the storms You don’t need to be who you were before) I always thought it would be easier To search for better weather Explain Request ×
