Tangled

Tangled changer, What's the game
Take me to the start
You've gone all blue but that's on you
To sort your insides out
Table's played, it's getting late
The answer comes to you
But change is hard and that's the part
That you don't want to do
Change is hard and that's the part
That you don't want to do
Hold on, no one gets the feel on their first try
Hold on, everything comes out when it's time
Hold on, we got nothing going on anyway
Troubled teen, you're getting mean
It was all on you
We called the cops but that's your fault so
Get your own self out
Kick and scream, your life's a dream
Just wait 'til it gets hard
Change your tune, it's all on you
To sort your insides out
Change is hard and that's the part
That we don't want to do
Hold on, no one gets the feel on their first try
Hold on, everything comes out when it's time
Hold on, we got nothing going on
We got nothing going on
Change is hard and that's the part that we don't want to do
Hold on, no one gets the feel on their first try
Hold on, everything comes out when it's time
Hold on, no one gets the feel on their first try




Hold on, everything comes out when it's time
It's alright
