Restless

You think, I haven't tried You wanna keep me tied Fresh out the institution Now it's time I provide Anxious on the inside, concealing wounded pride A victim of expectations I don't want to realise 'Cause I'm restless My roots don't stretch so low and I'm reluctant to grow How don't you get this? When you've been here before, green and wanting to explore it all It makes me restless But responsibility's another chapter for me So claim the page Wipe it clean And illustrate With anything Now, staring in the mirror at the lines across my face Hoping that a sun hat will chase the age away But boasting with my tight clothes and knowing that I'm safe That I've still got lots of time and that it's never too late Kids out on the grass and poppin' bottles in the park Lazing in a sun trap only waking when it's dark I guess we could try harder but delusion is our gold It's the medal for a champion whose never growing old And we're restless Our roots don't stretch so low and we're reluctant to grow How don't you get this When you've been here before, green and wanting to explore it all It makes us restless But responsibility's another chapter for me So claim the page Wipe it clean And illustrate With anything Anything So I let myself loose Clinging on with all my youth No opportunity refused No need for an excuse to be Out cold Waiting for a taxi but not going home Be bold 'Cause I'm scared, I'm scared of getting old
