Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Layin' down inside
And you say you're not surprised, but you were
Whoa
Now it's raining outside, but if there's rain or not
You can tell you're not okay from the way you hide
And you're not knowing what the cure is tonight
[Verse 2]
You can get all defensive silently
Or you can try and accept it all
Let's go, you'll see
The latter's me
[Verse 3]
I open both my eyes and nothing's gonna get in the way
I kept the stress alive
I need a change alright
There's something wrong if you're calm in your life
And you suddenly think
That you're not feeling quite as you were last week
If you stare at the state of your yesterdays
Problems await
[Chorus]
I'll keep the drama out my head
I could hang with my friends and be present instead for awhile
Keep the drama out my life
Get distracted and high for a moment, yeah
I think that's enough stress for one day
No one hears what we say
Either way, they can think what they like
I open up and trust my choice
I'm gon' hang my boys
And just take time, yeah
[Verse 4]
Fuck my to-do list and my plans
I'm gon' go to Japan
Take the train, Tokyo to Kyoto
Explore the world, hit Hawaii onto Lanai
We can leave life behind, no problemo
No, it wouldn't mean shit to me
[Verse 5]
See, the point I'm at right now
What's about to go down
It's uncertain, it seems every time
So I'm not wasting any more
Time to explore, for sure, yeah, yeah
[Verse 6]
I paid the price, I let my feelings get the best of me
And I left myself tonight
Embarrassment delivered
And it comes as no surprise
Feelin' pain right to the limit
And they still won't sympathise
[Chorus]
I'll keep the drama out my head
I'm gon' hang with my friends and just ride
I'll keep the drama out my life
We can go where we like, that's right, whoa
Turn off the phone and keep it off
It's okay to ignore and log off, oh
