The Dangerous Summer - Settle Down lyrics

rate me

I gave my things away,

I called the people that I only see on holidays,

This next year's gonna burn a hole in me.

I spend my weekdays in my car,

And the weekends drinking hard enough for two.

I think I'll settle down one of these days

Till I catch my breath,

I feel the weight of the world on my back,

But I'm not feeling sick to death.

'Cause I laid awake in bed, and thought of better times.

I never want to sleep, 'cause I found apathy

I'm laying down and never waking up, never waking up.

I learned a lot today,

'Cause there's a reason why I'll never live the easy way.

I'm trying to be real.

I wrote down words inside my arm

That say I'll never walk alone 'cause I'll get tired.

I know I'll have my friends in every way,

So I caught my breath and for the first time I found what I'm looking for.

I laid awake in bed, and thought of better times.

I never want to sleep, 'cause I found apathy.

In laying down and never waking up, never waking up.

I laid awake in bed, and thought of better times.

I never want to sleep, 'cause I found apathy

In laying down and never waking up, never waking up.

Yeah, I went down.

Yeah, I found the way,

In the city where my father was born.

I had a dream I moved out West.

I finally found out what I wanted to be,

So I picked up where I left,

And I waited two more years,

(waited two more years)

And covered up my ears.

(and covered up my ears)

I think I'm ready to sing this time,

(I think I'm ready to sing)

I think I'm ready to sing this time.

I really think I'm gone...

I laid awake in bed, and thought of better times.

I never want to sleep, 'cause I found apathy

In laying down and never waking up, never waking up.

I laid awake in bed, and thought of better times.

I never want to sleep, 'cause I found apathy

In laying down and never waking up, never waking up.
