Leddra Chapman - Blue Tattoo lyrics

rate me

(Verse)

We were brought up by the nation to believe we'll all be rock-stars

With mansions in the city and a circus in the backyard

With feris wheels and tigers to tame

Well, at least I've got my hands free

Of ? naughty pilot, making coffee for the suits

Making my way up to the sky

But it gets harder the higher you climb

I wish it was change in my pocket weighing me down

(Chorus x2)

Light up like a fire, I'm swimming with the sharks

And I am frightened

I'm drowning in a blue tattoo, is it all for you?

(Verse 2)

We were brought up by our mothers to believe in moral high-ground

With fidelity in grace, avoiding jealousy in playgrounds

But never confuse happiness with success

I wish it was change in my pocket weighing me down

(Chorus x2)

Light up like a fire, I'm swimming with the sharks

And I am frightened

I'm drowning in a blue tattoo, is it all for you?

(Bridge)

We were brought up by the nation to believe we could be rock-stars

Mansions in the city and a circus in the backyard

My ferris wheel, it broke down (broke down, broke down)

(Chorus x2)

Light up like a fire, I'm swimming with the sharks

And I am frightened

I'm drowning in a blue tattoo, is it all for you?
