Kate Miller-Heidke - Words lyrics

rate me

These words are working, do they work for you?

Is there something wrong between us?

Is there something I can do?

Is there some way I can take back all the times you threw away?

Been burning up the decade when you should've seized the day

I wonder why you're talking 'cause you're talking all the time

Will you ever get the message and just leave it all behind

The conversation's trivial but trivial is fine

When held up to the light

Do you think my personality is written in stone?

Are you positively certain that you know what you've been shown

I'm a snapshot of the person that you think I ought to be

Now give it up! Give it up! Give it up!

I've been the leader, I've been the follower

I've been the dreamer, I've been the wallower

I take the high road, I take the low road

I don't wanna be your mother

I've been down, boys, I've been down boys

Been right to the top

When you hear me coming you can hear a pin drop

Didn't mean to be annoying, didn't mean to make a mess

Never meant to cast a shadow but it's leading me to stress

The shrapnel from your heart is buried in my chest

And its 'not all me

Do you think my personality is written in stone?

Are you positively certain that you know what you've been shown

I'm a snapshot of the person that you think I ought to be

Now give it up! Give it up! Give it up!

I've been the leader, I've been the follower

I've been the dreamer, I've been the wallower

I take the high road, I take the low road

I don't wanna be your mother

I've been down, boys, I've been down boys

Been right to the top

When you hear me coming you can hear a pin, drop

La La La La La La La La Doe Doe Doe (X2)
