Concrete
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.
Mornings built on bad nights
Those conversations led to vacations I needed
Systematic meltdown
The situation, we need to face it
Melodramatic, or maybe you're manic
I'm sympathetic, accepting you for every flaw
At least I tried to see the world through your eyes
(It's like I'm living with)
Concrete strapped to my feet
Tossed out into the sea
Why you gotta scream at me
When everyone is listening
(Yeah-ah)
Calm down you're waving that gun too fast
You've got to breathe
How I'm gonna talk to you?
When I'm wearing bricks for shoes
Yeah
C-o-n-c-r-e-t-e-e
C-o-n-c-r-e-t-e-e
C-o-n-c-r-e-t-e-e
R-e-t-e-e
Cling on tight to lose ends
Claim that I frayed them, when I tried to save them
I couldn't do it
Vodka tonic freak out
Is twenty really that tiring?
Cuz lately you're spiraling down
Melodramatic, or maybe you're manic
I'm sympathetic, accepting you for every flaw
At least I tried to see the world through your eyes
(It's like I'm living with)
Concrete strapped to my feet
Tossed out into the sea
Why you gotta scream at me
When everyone is listening
(Yeah-ah)
Calm down you're waving that gun too fast
You've got to breathe
How I'm gonna talk to you?
When I'm wearing bricks for shoes
Yeah
C-o-n-c-r-e-t-e-e
C-o-n-c-r-e-t-e-e
C-o-n-c-r-e-t-e-e
R-e-t-e-e
And tell me when we'll get this
When we'll get this off the ground
Feels like never (Never)
I'll be spending my nights
Spending my nights on the town
No sleep ever (Ever)
(It's like I'm living with)
Concrete strapped to my feet
Tossed out into the sea
Why you gotta scream at me
When everyone is listening
(Yeah-ah)
Calm down you're waving that gun too fast
You've got to breathe
How I'm gonna talk to you?
When I'm wearing bricks for shoes
Yeah
C-o-n-c-r-e-t-e-e
C-o-n-c-r-e-t-e-e
C-o-n-c-r-e-t-e-e
R-e-t-e-e
