I used to think that people got big writing good songs from the heart |
[00:08.93] |
But now I know that people just like to get a number one on the pop chart |
[00:15.88] |
I used to drive around listening to blink |
[00:19.91] |
I used to wonder what everybody else would think about the songs I wrote and are they good enough for the radio? |
[00:30.95] |
Everybody's falling apart. |
[00:33.80] |
Do you know it doesn't have to be so hard? |
[00:38.10] |
It seems everybody thought it would be easy to strike gold, but you sold out. |
[00:45.61] |
You see I didn't wanna be someone else, I hit the road, |
[00:50.73] |
played some shows to become myself. |
[00:53.39] |
It seems everybody thought it'd be easy to strike gold, but you sold out. |

I used to see NFG every summer when they came through town |
[01:09.40] |
Front row, every show with my best friends singing along |
[01:15.29] |
dreaming about |
[01:16.92] |
walking out on stage every single night |
[01:20.78] |
saying my bands name hoping that they like the songs I wrote about my life.. |
[01:29.39] |
I think I got the dream right |
[01:31.87] |
But now everybody's falling apart. |
[01:35.18] |
Do you know it doesn't have to be so hard? |
[01:39.36] |
It seems everybody thought it would be easy to strike gold, but you sold out. |
[01:47.40] |

It seems everybody thought it'd be easy to strike gold, but you sold out. |
[02:04.34] |
All of the time that you spent pulling strings trying to be the next big |
[02:10.87] |
thing, you could have spent your time just writing songs finding out |
[02:17.18] |
just who you are |
[02:19.69] |
And my favourite part of this is while you played pretend you missed |
[02:27.21] |
that it's deep down where you find the hits, the hits |
[02:37.96] |
I used to think that people got big writing good songs from the heart |
