Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Let me tell you a secret, I lose the point

And all the meaning, I stare at the ceiling

But I turn it around, I turn it around

That's what I do, I turn it around

[Chorus]

Shake the trouble from your eyes

Shake the freeze from your insides

It's already halfway great

There are no mistakes

[Verse 2]

You're fighting the wrong fight

Still reversing an old slight

I don't wanna be, don't wanna be

I don't wanna be, don't wanna be

Still flying the first kite

Still riding the first bike

[Chorus]

The world is telling me something

I think it might be true

It says X is you

The world is telling me something

And I know what to do

I think X is you

[Verse 3]

I checked my way down a list

In a magazine

Every box I ticked

Every box was me

Result was clinically depressed

Clear as day

Not what I wanna hear

It's not what I'm gonna say

[Chorus]

Shake the trouble from your eyes

Shake the freeze from your insides

It's already halfway great

There are no mistakes

[Chorus]

Shake the trouble from your eyes

Shake the freeze from your insides

It's already halfway great

There are no mistakes

[Outro]

Shake the trouble from your eyes

Shake the freeze from your insides

It's already halfway great

There are no mistakes
