Lyrics
Placebo
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.
Wipe that sad look off your face
You would not last one day
Your weak reality
Starts now
These journeys always sneak up on me
And things forced to leave in plans we hope succeed
And I'm like a flea without a family
Clinging to those who'll have me
Waiting for
You I'll know
Wipe that sad look off your face
Leave nothing left to say
Your weak reality
Starts now
And in an attempt to become
The adult I wish to be
I still remain
An invention that failed
Waiting for
You is slow
Why can't we stay the same for now?
These times are trying and I can't last
Stay the same
Won't you stay the same for now?
Take this, take this some more
That's all I ask
These are the times of our lives
We won't live fast
Why can't we stay the same for now?
These times are trying and I can't last
Stay the same
Won't you stay the same for now?
