Embleton

Lyrics

All my life I thought this was the only way to be
And everyone was just like me
Live awhile and fake a smile
Then join the saints at last
Forever young and free

Til you sat me down
Said I should get checked out
Am I the only one

I'd settle for normal
White picket fence
To not wake up and feel the heavy on my chest
I'd settle for stable
Blend in to the rest
A level head to keep my feelings in check
I'd settle for ok

All my life I've moved around from town to town and now
I forgot your name
And the place we met
On the way the play by play
Rewind it back again
Did I say too much
Did I scare you away

So you sat me down
Said I should write about
Some happy thoughts

What about the song I just wrote
Isn't it normal
White picket fence
To wake up everyday with all this on my chest
Isn't it stable
Just like the rest
What's a level head to keep my feelings in check

You sat me down
Said I should get checked out
Not fake a smile
Another day
Will it mess me up
Will I feel the same
When it's said and done
Is there another way

To settle for normal
White picket fence
To not wake up and feel the heavy on my chest
Settle for stable
Blend in to the rest
A level head to keep my feelings in check
I'd settle ok
