"The Gates" lyrics

Jessica Rose & Brielle Von Hugel Lyrics

"The Gates"

9 to 5
Working all day and night
Everything looks just right
But you ain't feeling so good inside

1, 2, 3
Make it look so easy
When will you be happy?
Things ain't always what they may seem

Woah-oh-oh
This is your life, you know
Woah-oh-oh

You're never blamed for your mistakes
Wasting time counting your change
It won't matter who's giving you love
You're never forced to pull the weight
You don't have to hide away
When you get to the gates

Woah-oh-oh, woah-oh-oh, woah-oh-oh
When you get to the...

Dream about
What's going on in the clouds
But darling, just live right now
The world is what you make it to be
Without doubt
You're gonna figure this shit out
You'll see what it's all about
Just go on with yourself and be free

Woah-oh-oh
This is your life, you know
Woah-oh-oh

You're never blamed for your mistakes
Wasting time counting your change
It won't matter who's giving you love
You're never forced to pull the weight
You don't have to hide away
When you get to the gates

Woah-oh-oh, woah-oh-oh, woah-oh-oh
When you get to the...

You're lost but you'll never be broken
Keep on with your heart wide open
I know that I'm more enough

You're never blamed for your mistakes
Wasting time counting your change
It won't matter who's giving you love
And you're never forced to pull the weight
You don't have to hide away

You're never blamed for your mistakes
Wasting time counting your change
It won't matter who's giving you love
And you're never forced to pull the weight
You don't have to hide away
When you get to the gates

(When you get to the, when you get to the gates)
(You don't have to hide away)
