Pedro The Lion - Spend Time Lyrics

Spend time with the energy
Spend time with the energy
Spend time with the enemy

At college I started my own band
And then I dropped out to play shows
Found me a room where I live and rehearse
I'm pretty excited to see how it goes

Is what I would've said to the cousins I love
At Christmas dinner when they asked me what I was up to
If I had courage left
Instead I told 'em I was teaching drum set

I couldn't let it, I couldn't let it
I couldn't let myself let it in
I couldn't let it, I couldn't let it
I couldn't let it, I couldn't let myself

Spend time with the energy
Spend time with the energy
Spend time with the enemy

Then when my mother pulled me aside
Looked me in the eye, said, why you saying that?
You're really doin' the band, don't be ashamed of it

Back in my room drumming with Paul
He can rip it up like an animal
But when it when it was my turn
I couldn't let go
Or get out of my head
Or into the flow

I couldn't let it, I couldn't let it
I couldn't let myself let it in
I couldn't let it, I couldn't let it
I couldn't let it, I couldn't let myself

Spend time with the energy
Spend time with the energy
Spend time with the enemy
