Aware
Clockwise Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Here I am with everything I wanted from the start
Singing as I'm working to my left and maybe know we are

Always alright, yeah
Always alright

Until I break me down, oh yeah
Until I break me down, oh yeah
Until I break me down, oh yeah
Until I break me down

Despite resistance, I've gone the distance
Though I did not travel alone
Found the one I didn't think I'd find
Soon enough we'll be coming home

Always alright, yeah
Always alright

Until I break me down, oh yeah
Until I break me down, oh yeah
Until I break me down, oh yeah
Until I break me down

Until I break me down, oh yeah
Until I break me down, oh yeah




Going on to find my way, turn around
No matter what I am, I'll drag me down
