lyrics

“I’m alright” I said
But am I really feeling it
I think I’m alright you know
I got so used to faking it
To keep my head down
From these strong winds

I just can’t forget
A single thing you said
Lying in your arms
We just have to care

Know what I want
And I’ve got to do
Put myself infront of you
All alone when the search was on
Who cares how these wounds have come
Bad habits made their home
They grew up from my failings

I just can’t forget
A single thing you said
Lying in your arms
We just have to care
And the lies that we tell ourselves
Form the moving targets
Are we hating this yet?

Everybody else
Seems so much better organized
Everybody else
Seems to know better
than I

And I think I can
Do better and better than
And I think I can
Do better and better than
The lies that I tell myself
All the moving targets
Are we saving ourselves?
