Shift On
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.
Following the same roads, from a place I once called home
And I'm Staring into passing cars and wondering if any of this means a thing to me.
Well this is all I have and this is where I need to be right now.
I just don't know anymore.
Focus the light has blinded you. (We'll see this through.)
Contrast with the image, as it alters your view.
Focus the light has blinded you. (We'll see this through.)
Don't conform to an image, don't let this alter you.
I know that your clever lies are tied to the truth.
Your held down by change you need to find the strength and break yourself loose.
I know that your clever lies are tied to the truth.
Your held down by change you need to find the strength and cut yourself loose
Focus the light has blinded you. (We'll see this through.)
Contrast with the image, as it alters your view.
Focus the light has blinded you. (We'll see this through.)
Give up shift on full force to something new.
Let it out. Scream until your voice can't make a sound.
Let it out, its time to break these ties that keep us down.
And I'm hoping that tomorrow shines with the warmest rays down from the sun.
It's time for us to leave this place and give up out past lives while we're still young.
Scream until your voice breaks.
I know when I get home everything in this town will change.
But I'm sure when I get home the emptiness remains.
So I'll scream until your voice breaks.
When I get home everything will change.
