Lyrics
Your rushin round this world just lost in a daze
dont care how much it all wud cost ud pay nethin to get away
and leave all ur troubles behind
feel ur gettin nowhere like its the blind leadin the blind
feel ur needin some time,
want to scream so loud but somethings jst shuttin u up
u want to dream but it seems ur not allowed n
its cuttin u up but the cuts r invisible like the stars
on a misrable nite its not pyshical its mental scars
so judgemental are those who think they've got it all
unaware of the dangers, jst be aware of the strangers that,
wanna see us fall even the angels,
see its jst the strangest of feelings
that u get, like sum1s stealin ya dreams so ur wakin up in a sweat
under so much pressure, and stress your goin out ur mind
yeh sure u pretend ur fine
but what can u do ur guess is as good as mine,
its gonna get a little worse unless u take a little time.
live life to the full coz uv only got one, others givin u advice like
heres wot u shoulda done, look at wot u coulda won, see you'd
lost even before ud begun, but before u turn to run, away from it all
take a step back, stop relax, take a deep breath coz those cracks
from those who've knocked u back, are begginin to show,
and so u carry on like everythings a ok, ur lifes so fake,ur like
a karaoke, ok..so wot u gonna do jst drop it, bottle it up n
lock it hidden in ur pocket, u kno that wont stop it,
u'l build up ur bubble then trouble will come outta ur pocket n pop it.
take ur confidence n knock it, the consequences r shocking, the clocks
ticking theres no stopping, cant stop urself from falling,
ur startin then ur stallin
it happens to us all
give urself a minute, its ur race 4 life uv gotta b in it to win it
i can b ur rock, yeh ur shoulder to cry on
so if u ever wanna talk, il b the one u can rely on
at any time of day, morning noon or night
so if u find u cant sleep, il help u turn out the light
help u count all the sheep and then ill tuck u in tight.
and then with a little luck u mite, and see
u dont have to act with me, bcos u cant kid a kidder
i can see ur cracked, n its gettin bigger n bigger,
so u dig n u figure everythings gonna go wrong,
uv got to stop diggin, u know yav got to be strong,
u wanna block it all out, so things are no longer clear
so u knock back the drinks, n now u'v nothing to fear
but its no shock that the next cracks begginnin to appear
while ur problems sit on ur shoulder n whisper in ur ear
u pretend not to hear,u say its all in ur mind..
but its gonna geta little worse, unless u take a little time
(Chorus)
and i .. i wanna feel ur pain
il b the sunshine thru ur rain..
uv got to slow it down.. bcos ur lifes breakin u down
u gotta clear ur mind.. uv gotta take a little time
