Wayside

(альбом: Look What You Made - 2022)

Falling to the wayside, I
Don't want you to waste your time
Looking for the daylight
When all it does is strain my eyes
Falling to the wayside, I
Don't want you to waste your time
Looking for the daylight
When all it does is strain my eyes

Falling from the pressure in this habitat
You're sick of feeling like the one these people laughing at
They tell you happy is the goal, but it gets hard when you're alone
And what you give to make it out, you'll never have it back, yeah
And you would think if he can see that, he would change it, right?
But what identity is left if nothing plagues his life
Retreats into his room and blast the music loud
It's like a trans-reality for the moment, that keeps him far away from daylight, daylight
Not know what it's like to feel
Like, why the fuck is there so much I gotta deal with
Just to stay right, stay right?
When everybody else is doing fine on the factory settings
Then what am I, huh?

They're putting on the masks just to breathe slow
Hard to be accepted when you won't attend the freak show
So he slips into the comfort of the night
By himself, where he spend his whole life

Falling to the wayside, I
Don't want you to waste your time
Looking for the daylight
When all it does is strain my eyes
Falling to the wayside, I
Don't want you to waste your time
Looking for the daylight (Oh)
When all it does is strain my eyes

Welcome to the show, he's got nothing to show for it
Dreams don't pay, you gotta go for it
Feeling on top of the world, so Steve is barely breathing
Higher that you get the harder you fall and that's repeating
Take a photo for all we used to know
The ghost of the past, all our love was lost
And maybe they'll never know

That I've been falling to the wayside
And I don't want you to waste your time
Looking for the daylight
When all it does is strain my eyes

Falling to the wayside, I
Don't want you to waste your time
Looking for the daylight
When all it does is strain my eyes
Falling to the wayside, I
Don't want you to waste your time
Looking for the daylight (Daylight)
When all it does is strain my eyes (My eyes)

Falling to the wayside, I
Don't want you to waste your time
Looking for the daylight (Yeah)
When all it does is strain my eyes
Falling to the wayside, I (Daylight)
Don't want you to waste your time (My eyes)
Looking for the daylight
All it does is strain my eyes
