Thomas Day Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Hmmm, yeah, woah
No no no no
No no no no
Yeah, yeah
Look, I hear it everywhere I never thought I'd be the one
I in space on my lonely like the moon and sun
I'm running but I don't know how he keeps on finding me
Don't even know what to do to be out there
I don't even even have the moves to be out there
Dunno who they're gonna choose when I'm out there
Deadly game I just don't wanna lose when I'm out
Now I'm back and forth and back and back and forth
Asking god for what I lack and more
This can't be all that you had in store
Please send me a sign need to know for sure
My head's been bouncing now from wall to wall
Now feel my ears are burning when they're talking more
Feels like I've been holding back now for too long
It's like I'm blind without the lights on yeah
Oh but I know
Yeah that we'll grow
I'm on the high road
I'm on the high road
Yeah, I'll keep 'cruisin on
Everything is breezing past me
I just can't seem to see straight
Mind's clouded there's too many thoughts
Head feels like a heavyweight champion
Success goes
Yeah
And aspirations, yeah
They want it all
In desperation
But these things these little things
Little things, little things they take patience
Focussed on a dream but my dream is out of focus
Fading, disappearing poof
Hocus pocus
I'm running marching forward feeling like a joke
Us, me, you I'm the team
I must believe
In myself I can achieve
The dreams I've painted in my head
I'm onto bigger things
Feels like I've been holding back now for too long
It's like I'm blind without the lights on yeah
Oh but I know
Yeah that we'll grow
I'm on the high road
I'm on the high road
Yeah, I'll keep 'cruisin on
Moving into the big leagues
About to go stand on my own feet
Power through for years
Dance like I don't care
Finish then love in a three piece
Doing something that I wasn't sure about
That initially thought I was sure about
Torn between what I want and what I need
Things that were told were right for me
This path that I chose ain't right for me
Your perception won't decipher me
I live my life for I
Your opinion ain't in my head
If I want it then I'm 'gon try
Until my very last breath
I'll do what I can
This is my plan, you'll understand
Feels like I've been holding back now for too long
It's like I'm blind without the lights on yeah
Oh but I know
Yeah that we'll grow
I'm on the high road
I'm on the high road
Yeah, I'll keep 'cruisin on
Yeah, I'll keep 'cruisin on
Yeah, I'll keep 'cruisin on
