Excuses

Текст песни The Morning Benders - Excuses

This spirit is holding us down
Pushin' our shoulders in deep
Pulling us through the lines
Toasting our backs in the sun
Now I'm waiting to hear my next call
We got all out ears pressed against the wall

But now our gaze is set straight
We're seeing it all eye to eye
While balance is still chasing after
Just hanging on as we walk by

And they say it's only natural
They say we're coming along just fine
But I can't help thinking we grew up too fast
And I know, I know, I know this won't last
A second longer than it has

Children you will
Be cared for at once
And warmed in our arms like promises plucked from above

This world is only getting smaller
The choices aren't ours to be made
I meant to waste all my days
I feel like wasting my days
And I've seen what's coming on
And I can't say it will all be fine
Yet I can't help thinking we grew up too fast, no
No, I can't help thinking we grew up too fast, no
And I know, I know, I know this won't last
A second longer than it has to
