Spend my time in the wrong place Going back to see that face I've had my fingers crossed for quite some time my friend And as the sun grows old we try to make amends Takes a leaf from each tree we pass Tear it up and throw it into the grass Tired of imitating everyone's laughs and fun Tired of chasing them when they run Everything you knew is everything you put yourself through Everything you knew is everything you put yourself through Everything you knew is everything you put yourself through And I'm tired of picking up my feet And the tide never quite quells the heat And the salt urges through my shut eyes Head's heavy with sand and all your lies Takes a straw from each beach I pass Pocket it and wonder round the coastal paths Tired of imitating everyone's laughs and fun Tired of chasing them when they run Everything you knew is everything you put yourself through Everything you knew is everything you put yourself through Everything you knew is everything you put yourself through
