Lyrics

Holiday

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I couldn't lie if I wanted to

The trick of the take

Has brought this all to a new kinda low

Stuck in a line to an early grave

That stands in the way

Of the life I'm meant to know

Save me

I'm falling

With a long long way to go

Losing the fight in a shallow play

With nothing to gain

Well I don't wanna bitch about it no more

I've reached the end, it's time

So bring me peace of mind

I need a holiday

There's nothing left to save

I'll hold my tongue as I close the door

Before I walk away

I'll be the first to say

There's more to life than a living

So I'll sprеad my wings and fly

I compromised to the whims of men

Who promisеd a change

But in the end they left me high and dry

I play the fool time and time again

I guess I'm to blame

Now I'm barely getting by

They'll take it all, yeah

And you know that I am right

They'll rob you blind till the wicked end

This place is insane

I got no patience left to put up a fight

I'm down to my last nerve

It only brings me to my worst

When will I learn?

I need a holiday

There's nothing left to save

I'll hold my tongue as I close the door

Before I walk away

I'll be the first to say

There's more to life than a living

So I'll spread my wings and fly

I've reached the end, it's time

So bring me peace of mind

I need a holiday

There's nothing left to save

I'll hold my tongue as I close the door

Before I walk away

I'll be the first to say

There's more to life than a living

I need a holiday

There's nothing left to save

I'll hold my tongue as I close the door

Before I walk away

I'll be the first to say

There's more to life than a living

So I'll spread my wings and fly

I'll spread my wings and fly

I'll spread my wings and fly
