lyrics

Got it tough tell you so
everyday on my phone
I don't read and I don't know
I tell you what to do
Know it all we are through
As I say not as I do
Step outside seize the day
Lying down in the shade
I don't see who’s to blame
Time alone choice is mine
It aint from some divine
Had to be those before

I’ll never see that you broke your back so I can sit and think about myself
I’ll never think that I would do it different in fact probably do it worse

I am this and I am that
I am good and you are bad
Little screen told me so
Disappear in my van
Time alone to understand
No ones fault but my own
Writings there on the wall
Voices talk subtle call
Put a sack on my head
Quit my job give it in
No to school he will win
Climate badge on my van

I’ll never see that you broke your back so I can sit and think about myself
I’ll never think that I would do it different in fact probably do it worse
