chorus] |
|
drifting |
|
watchin the world go round |
|
world go, yeah (world go round) |
|
listening |
|
to unfamiliar feelings and unknown sounds |
|
unknown sounds, unknown sounds |
|
|
|
[verse 1] |
|
slippin through my fingertips (ayy), lingerin |
|
shoulda, woulda, coulda, whered i put the pen? (woah) |
|
make a list of all my failed attempts |
|
runnin out of space again |
|
highlight all the things i wish i never said (stop) |
|
if feeling makes you stronger, im the weakest |
|
that would mean that i would have to separate from my beliefs |
|
its not a secret, im a puzzle, got a lot of missin pieces |
|
underneath this strong persona i put ons a kid thats screamin |
|
arent these waters so deceivin? (so deceivin) |
|
they look different, dont they? |
|
well, at least thats how they seem to me |
|
cause we just drift and drift and drift |
|
until we see something that we define as peaceful |
|
grab the needle, shoot reminders in my veins |
|
that people leave you while im driftin |
|
|
|
[chorus] |

[verse 2] |
|
lots of gossip, ive been watchin you |
|
how youre talkin to yourself is rude |
|
driftin im in the same boat as you |
|
sinkin, dreamin, screamin for some truth |
|
and (my, my) escalators broke, ill take the stairs, i guess |
|
climb until im outta breath |
|
questioning my every step (woah) |
|
my train of thought is leadin me to different tracks |
|
positive that where im at is not where i should stay and thats (why) |
|
told you look into the mirror and say, "i love you" |
|
convince yourself that no one in the world would ever want to |
|
passin by the people that have been there to support you |
|
from the get-go, disrespectful, drive you mental |
|
might get stressful when im driftin |
|
i see you in the distance |
|
askin me why im so distant, im convicted |
|
im convinced that i predict that all my wishes on my wish list wont be heard |
|
cause im committed to the lie that feeling safe is unrealistic |
|
when im driftin |
|
|
|
[chorus] |
|
watchin the world go round |
|
world go, yeah (world go round) |
|
listening |
|
to unfamiliar feelings and unknown sounds |
|
unknown sounds, unknown sounds |

|
|
[outro] |
|
ignorant to my ignorance |
|
tell me im worth it, god |
|
give me the faith to rise and help me diversify |
|
to take a step forward, immersed in my belligerence, amplified |
|
the feelings and words collide |
|
intensified by living a life deprived |
|
id rather be burned alive |
|
than go back to thinkin im insignificant (insignificant) |
|
every impotent moment debated can trigger it |
|
god is my witness definitive |
|
holdin my head up, there isnt an innocent bone in my body |
|
but thats what gives me the energy lacked |
|
to renovate, have to innovate, past intimidates |
|
cant remain afraid |
