South Street Lullaby

(album: Help! - 2016)

First off, it's been a while
The pen is down cause the ink went out
Just living for the moment now
Behind closed doors while the lights are out
Oh, no it should not be like this
Oh, no it should not be like this
Oh, no it should not be like this
Oh, no it should not be like this

No!
Uncovered all of my deepest
Darkest fears in the night
I can't let go
Oh, no it should not be like this
Oh, no it should not be like this
Oh, no it should not be like this

I've lost control
Down to these bones
Six feet below

I think I pushed too far I can't find the line
Barely holding on and I know it's nothing
(I know it's nothing at all)
Echoes of what should have been
Slowly drift away cause we all feel anger
(I know it's nothing at all)
No one's ever been this low

I spent my whole time
Living life with eyes that only fed me lies
Two steps in my own shoes
And I'll watch 'em leave you blind
If this is who we are
Bury me, bury me, bury
Leaving this world behind
Bury me, bury me, bury

I've lost control
Down to these bones
Six feet below
What have I done?

I think I pushed too far I can't find the line
Barely holding on and I know it's nothing
(I know it's nothing at all)
Echoes of what should have been
Slowly drift away cause we all feel anger
(I know it's nothing at all)
No one's ever been this low

If I never believe I could change
Would I still find my way?
Am I too sick to see it?

I've lost control
Down to these bones
Six feet below
What have I done?
I've lost control
Down to these bones
Six feet below

I think I pushed too far I can't find the line
Barely holding on and I know it's nothing
(I know it's nothing at all)
Echoes of what should have been
Slowly drift away cause we all feel anger
(I know it's nothing at all)
No one's ever been this
No one's ever been this low

No! I know it should not be like this
No! I know it should not be like this
I know it should not be like this
I know it should not be like this
I know it should not be like... this
