Robert Leslie - Trying to Stay Alive Lyrics




Gave away my mind all day, now it's calling back to me
There it's waiting rigged like a sailing ship
Pointing outwards to the sea
How would it be to let go of the games I've been playing?
How bad could it be to just spend a day in bed?
(Better left unsaid)

Tried to walk the block today but everything seems changed
There's a shiver hiding behind the times
Like a spider lying in wait
Something I meant to be doing, I can never remember
Something that faded before the day was born
How'd I get so torn

Things seem strange these days
Why try and deny it?
When the web just seems to cling all the more you fight it
I don't care to compete in this weird fantasy
Just always doubling down the 9-5
Giving up every day
Trying to stay alive

Oh - won't be long before we've thrown it all away
Not a lot to lose, never seem to choose
All the choices just get made
Riding a wave down the wind I can never remember
Fading away into something I'll never know
Better left alone

Things are strange these days
Why try and deny it?
When the web just seems to cling all the more you fight it
I don't care to compete in this weird fantasy
Just always doubling down the 9-5
Giving up every day
Trying to stay alive
