Life Ahead

Why did you leave? You weren't here

Blood on my teeth, sand in my hair

Don't know how much more, how much more I can take

I'm on my way home, but I don't want to be

Staring down the barrel of the gun

Another year like a bullet, shot me in the face

Standing at the altar of expectation

Life ahead is scary, we don't know where we're going

At the dinner table, you're the best dressed

You can get away with murder with a face like yours

Go ahead, wear that smile for your mother like there's nothing wrong

Go ahead, wear that smile for your mother like there's nothing wrong

At the dinner table, you're the best dressed

You can get away with murder with a face like yours

Go ahead, wear that smile for your mother like there's nothing wrong

Go ahead, wear that smile for your mother like there's nothing wrong

How to tell them I don't feel amazing, how to tell them I'm still fucked up

Drink myself silly, hope they can't see me, hope my laugh loud enough to hide the smell

I've been selling, I've been selling sunset, all I've ever known's torrential rain

Camel Blues in the back garden, tip-toeing when she's gone to bed

Chainsmoking, trying to calm the motions, I know that she knows it's me out there

Daddy issues put me in a bad position in my head, I'm a mirror of the man

Broken down into so many pieces, everyone around me always leaving

I will never show you my true feelings, I will never show you my true feelings

I don't know how

At the dinner table, you're the best dressed

You can get away with murder with a face like yours

Go ahead, wear that smile for your mother like there's nothing wrong

Go ahead, wear that smile for your mother like there's nothing wrong

At the dinner table, you're the best dressed

You can get away with murder with a face like yours

Go ahead, wear that smile for your mother like there's nothing wrong

Go ahead, wear that smile for your mother like there's nothing wrong

At the dinner table, you're the best dressed

You can get away with murder with a face like yours

Go ahead, wear that smile for your mother like there's nothing wrong

Go ahead, wear that smile for your mother like there's nothing wrong
