The Loved Ones - The Odds lyrics

rate me

Maybe we're the lucky ones

'Cause we can choose to turn it off

Maybe we're the lonely ones

'Cause we decide to shield what's soft

I'm sure you'll learn to dance and drink and dream

but you might still feel lost

And I see myself in you my friend

but I would break where you would bend

I'm calling on what you defend and tonight I won't hold back

Just don't waste all your years

believing in the fear

You'll choke out what's alive and make

What's wrong be all that's real

I can see you're weakened at the seams

And trying to swim upstream but can't find a way

So here we are again trying to hold back

the tides behind our eyes

lucky ones trying to drink from both the wells we claim are dry

I guess I've found some freedom in

embracing every time they pry

We're both the same

You're just like me

And when your skin finally sheds

You'll find your nerves all in shreds

The price may be to keep your heart you'll lose your head
