lyrics

like a bee buzzing around your head
You’ve got something that will descend and learn
To sting you in the mouth or the eye or the nose
That somethings coming in it says it knows more than you

Like a burning distant fear that won’t give up
Like a breathing restless voice makes you Stand up
Says I’m going to harm you

Before everyone gives in they all say
Oh I’m made of grit I was always meant to stay
Before everyone gives in they beg for themselves to whoever will listen at that time
Didn’t I do all right?

Oh I
All right

I mean I botched some things
Mistakes and errors
Positives are good but they come and go
I want to know I want to fly I want to die on my Own terms
I want to give I want to live then you never know what burns your bridges
Till they’re burning down
You’re bridges till they’re lying in the ground

Before everyone gives in they all say
Oh I’m made of grit I was always meant to stay
Before everyone gives in they beg for themselves to whoever will listen at that time
Didn’t I do all right?
