Look at yourself sitting and waiting

Look at your days wasting away

And where can you go?

And what scares you so?

And why every moment makes us feel and grow?

Look at yourself, look a bit closer

Look at the years passing you by

And life lost all its spark

And I'm lost to the dark

And why does nothing take the edges off?

Try, try, try not to get stuck

Try, try, try not to get stuck

Get stuck into bigger things

And buy into bigger dreams

What good is a life

Spent everyday in hiding?

You hide a wild animal

Yet with cages a size too small

Can you feel it scratch the bone from deep within?

I fold you a paper crane

So you can animate

With a new life

That you wish you could believe

And if it don't work out well

Just let it all go to hell

I hear it's almost tender a still place

Just to let it go to waste

Whoa, oh

Whoa, oh

Look at yourself sitting and waiting

Look at your days wasting away

And life lost all its spark

And I'm lost to the dark

And why does nothing take the edges off?
