"Almost Ready" lyrics
"Almost Ready"
Ready but I can't get it started
Open but I feel like my heart is lagging and thin
Socials feel a little bit hollow
Maybe with a like and a follow I'll matter again
Eventually you find what your voice is
Essentially there isn't a choice, it's those who pretend
Learning where to be when the eyes swarm
Leaning like a tree in an ice storm, you'll break if you bend
I'm almost ready to give up
I'm almost ready to give up
But I'm not giving in
I'm just laying down
Resting my head
Turning around
And starting again
Make a case for trying to continue
Self-respect is back on the menu, don't try to pretend
Not saying I'm not disappointed
When someone else is always anointed time and again
So saddle up to mimics and posers
You gotta keep your enemies closer, where does it end?
I'm almost ready to give up
I'm almost ready to give up
But I'm not giving in
I'm just laying down
Resting my head
Turning around
And starting again
I'll be flying as they're bobbing in the deep end
I'm no lover boy here working for the weekend
I'm implying that given time
I'll divine you want mine, get in line
I'm almost ready to give up
I'm almost ready to give up
I'm almost ready to give up
I'm almost ready to give up
But I'm not giving in
I'm just laying down
Resting my head
Turning around
And starting again
Resting my head
Turning around
And starting again
Turning around
And starting again

That's when they say I lost my only friend
Well they said she died easy of a broken heart disease

Better Than Ezra - "Misunderstood" Talking in her sleep again
Reciting lines start to end
But she's not crazy

Just a little misunderstood

Stroke 9 - "Little Black Backpack" I know it
It's a shame
A shame I can't show it
And I see it
I can see it now
But I'm so far below it
Don't wanna
Don't wanna talk about it
I say why not?
Don't wanna think about it
I say...
Cake - "Sheep Go To Heaven" I'm not feeling alright today,
I'm not feeling that great,
I'm not catching on fire today,
Love has started to fade,
I'm not going to smile today,
I'm not gonna laugh,
You're out living it up...
Chumbawamba - "Tubthumping" Truth is I thought it mattered
I thought that music mattered
But does it? Bollocks
Not compared to our people matter
We'll be singing
When we're winning

I get knocked down
But I...
