Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You always come up gold
Without having been told
Was I ever that young or was I always old
[Verse 2]
You're trying on new fits
I'm on the same bullshit
But you know I love it and I can't seem to quit
[Verse 3]
If I could just stand still
Is it my will
Pulling me up this hill
Searching for something real
[Verse 4]
Can we please back this up
Refill the paper cup
Until we're all grown up
And we have had enough
[Verse 5]
If I could just stand still
Is it my will
Pulling me up this hill
Searching for something real
[Verse 6]
If I could just stand still
Is it my will
Pulling me up this hill
Searching for something real
Something real, now
[Verse 7]
If I could just stand still
Is it my will
Pulling me up this hill
Searching for something real
