*F word warning*

There we go, now you can't say the explicit lyrics were a shock :p Somehow managed to piece this together in between assignments + presentations of doom, hope you dig it :)

Lyrics:
guess I should have got some sleep,
but I was dying to catch the sun
seldom seems to stick around too long
in time my altered mind
tried to consume the light
but it blinded me by flying much too high

I get a hold of an intuition in this vision spins me round
no revelation, just white lies
like 'when I come across my next tight spot
I just might not let me down'
and that I'm already fine

CHORUS:
the grass is greener it's a common misconception,
but i wonder if they're talking it out
cause people dream of a scene, don't understand how it feels
and everybody thinks they're going without
am I allowed to make a fuss? I'm only twenty three, still
feels like something's fucked up cause nobody seems OK to me

too many faces and not one of them's a friend
people conform just to connect
while moneymakers note our dreams,
we feel like nothing's real
if the screen does not reveal it, what's to see?
keep thinking that if you lose this mindset,
you just might get left behind
can't see that's how to get free
some people see it but get defeatist never see it's do or die
how else are we to survive?

CHORUS

you want to grow, you ought to know the way you're going
we keep multiplying just the same
no one way's right, but something's wrong
there's no escape that's not change

the grass is greener it's a common misconception,
but i wonder if they're talking it out
cause people dream of a scene, don't understand how it feels
and everybody thinks they're going without
am I allowed to make a fuss? I'm only twenty three, still
feels like something's fucked up
and I wanna start a riot
cause nobody seems OK to me

guess I should have got some sleep.

  • BEAUTIFUL! Great Job! ********

  • oh my god! I love it, You are very talented... I'm jealous! Keep on -a-Rockin!

  • nice... reminds me of a song that i once wrote

  • great song wow [=

  • Your music really reminds me of Lisa Loeb. I absolutely adore it. ♥

  • The lyrics are actually saying something and her voice sounds good. I see a strong future singer here. I have heard much worse songs make it to my radio.

  • I think her vocals sound neat. She's way more songwriter than singer, but she's on key and sounds great. The voice is just unique like maybe Jack White.
