Lyrics

Hands

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.

Pretending to laugh is exhausting but I'd rather be tired than lose my friends again

And I'm nothing special but in the end I'm all that I've got

So friends raise your hands

Does it really matter to you if your haircut's uneven and none of your socks match

And do you care about people who speak just to hurt you, you know you're better than that

After all why would anything good happen if bad was all we got

I left a trail of hope so you won't get lost

So friends raise your hands

The end is coming closer with every breath you take

And you can't outrun the light speed earthquake (yeah)

And no matter how many times you tell me it's fine

I feel like this was all a mistake

Please humour me cause my mind's a castle of songs

And you're not singing along

Well, if you're not the singing kind it's fine

Just don't leave me behind

So friends raise your hands

Raise your hands
