The kids round here stuck in their teens Chasing the notion that’s in between The feeling you get when you’re hypnotised And the feeling you get looking in snake eyes
It’s not what you want, that’s the way that it seems Turning up while you turn up your jeans It’s harder to see when you improvise And it’s harder to run when you feel tongue tied
By the yes and the no, that helps you let go And feel alright for days
Tell me what you wanted And then tell me how to be it Through the constant “hello”s and “we won’t let go”s The heart’s in between the X’s and O’s Tell me when it’s okay Hiding happiness in clichés Drop me down to my knees, fill my memories Because we all need a little bit of tigerblood
Is it real, is it not and do I mind? Is it everything you hoped to find? Turned to me and then replied Is it just so wrong to fantasise
About the times when we felt alive? Holding up, holding out, holding on for the ride Screaming “oh my god” looking to the skies Wanna feel, wanna love, wanna recognise
That the things I don’t miss, make me reminisce And feel alright for days
Tell me what you wanted And then tell me how to be it Through the constant “hello”s and “we won’t let go”s The heart’s in between the X’s and O’s Tell me when it’s okay Hiding happiness in clichés Drop me down to my knees, fill my memories Because we all need a little bit of tigerblood
