Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You do this, and you'll get that
I want what I was promised, I'm a bit impatient
And what it is exactly that you think that you deserve?
No more, no less, is that ridiculous?
[Verse 2]
'Cause what we got down here is oceans of longing
And guessing games and no guarantees
And you work so hard to be in control
And now you're laughing at yourself 'cause you can't let go
[Verse 3]
'Cause all we're doing is learning how to die
Do you really think nobody sees the fear behind your smile?
And why do you care what anybody thinks at all?
It's all going to the same thing in the end
[Verse 4]
And what we got down here is oceans of longing
And guessing games and no guarantees
And you work so hard to be in control
And now you're laughing at yourself 'cause you can't let go
[Verse 5]
'Cause what we got down here is oceans of longing
And guessing games and no guarantees
And you work so hard to be in control
And now you're laughing at yourself 'cause you can't let go
