"Edgy" lyrics

"Edgy"

I know a man who could never relax
Lonely in his bed going over his tracks
I know a man at the break of dawn
He goes on, he goes on, he goes on

I know a girl who keeps to herself
Pushed all her dreams to the back of a shelf
I know a girl and she's almost gone
She goes on, she goes on, she goes on

And it's alright
Yeah it's alright

They wanna build you up and make you a national treasure
They wanna tear you apart and baby you're feeling the pressure

I know a boy who can barely breathe
Ain't caught a breath since he was seventeen
I know a boy with an iron lung
He goes on, he goes on, he goes on

My daddy says, don't sweat it
My daddy says, don't forget it
My daddy says, don't let it get you down

Cause it's alright
Yeah it's alright

They wanna build you up and make you a national treasure
They wanna tear you apart and baby you're feeling the pressure
Well shake me alright, wake me already
It's taking all night, it's making me edgy

It doesn't end like this
Oh no no
Doesn't end like this
Oh no no
Doesn't end like this
Like this

Shake me alright, wake me already
It's taking all night, it's making me edgy
Shake me alright, shake me
It's taking all night, it's making me edgy
