lyrics

I’ve always had the feeling working on someone else’s days that I would feel much better if I stayed away and every night before I’d go to sleep I’d say “tomorrow I will not go”. But the alarm comes earlier every day or maybe I’m just staying up way too late and there is so much you always leave behind that it eats at your heart and slows down your rhythm.

That’s why I need that dirt on my hands then I remember to feel and then my heart starts beating like it’s supposed to be. If I sweat through my shirt I don’t care about the rain, my blood is pounding like it’s supposed to be.

I have told too many secrets and I have kept too many lies. I don’t believe in anything that’s not right before my eyes. When your fingers can tell you that it’s real and if it can’t wash off it’s not worth even holding.

That’s why I need that dirt on my hands then I remember to feel and then my heart starts beating like it’s supposed to be. If I sweat through my shirt I don’t care about the rain, my blood is pounding like it’s supposed to be.

Not a day goes by that I don’t think about what I could have been if I made the same decisions as some of my friends. Would I be happy or be filled with regret? But I don’t dwell anymore than one single, solitary moment; it’s just not worth the time. You can’t move forward by looking back.

That’s why I need that dirt on my hands then I remember to feel and then my heart starts beating like it’s supposed to be. If I sweat through my shirt I don’t care about the rain, my blood is pounding like it’s supposed to be. My blood is pounding like it’s supposed to be. My heart is beating like it was made to be and I will follow the rhythm in it’s wake till it decides no more time will I take.
