Lyrics

Oh, London moon Help me stumble home Let me lose myself along the way I've got nothing left, it's kinda wonderful 'Cause there's nothing they can take away, away The open doors left me wanting more Never thought they'd close them all the way The ordinary life they want for you Is it too much to have to bear? But it's another way to win a useless fight You've been lying so long, don't know when you're faking See the water on the rise Just another day into a useless night I've been pushing so hard, now my hands are shaking See the water on the rise But I've been turned around I was upside down I felt love would always find a way But I know better now Got it figured out It's a perfect world all the same But I've been turned around I was upside down I felt love would always find a way But I know better now Got it figured out It's a perfect world all the same I was hopin' for An easy ramblin' life 'Til an ocean came to my mind We look for exit signs But we can't be changed Into nothing overnight Though we know it's over It keeps exploding Every morning when we rise
