Thoughts
Venture Motel Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And I don't mind for getting caught up in romance, who needs the heartache? I've felt that
And maybe it's time I realize I'm not tied down by my fears, they wont hold me down
Woah
And why don't I just get a job or something?
Cause, cause i really just need to move on with my life
And these thoughts are eating my mind (Eating my mind)
And oh, my insecurities get me every time
Now I know where to go
It seemed so far from what I was told
These thoughts are freed from my mind, now it seems like my life is my life
They'll say don't feel so inclined to do what you love
I tried to listen to them, but I'm giving up
I can't go on feeling this way
I can't go on
Now I know where to go
It seemed so far from what I was told
These thoughts are freed from my mind, now it seems like my life is my life
