lyrics

It seems we've come to the end of the line
Between making a difference and wasting time
I know you're scared, but for what it's worth
It was a pleasure to cross it first
Pronounce my life with Melissa again
Take what has been and make it what has Ben
I know the theory inside out
I just don't know what you're worried about

You may lose faith if you realise
I can't concentrate with my hands near your eyes
What did you want for eleven pounds
I laugh the more sincere you sound
Results are back and the papers are in
When did responsibility begin?
Maturity infects in insistence
This chord progression's the pill for resistance

And we will never die by serious
And we will give up on success to make you smile
And then we'll live forever

How about trying, just for today
And let your targets carry me away
I hear tell of a thing called 'ambition'
But now I'm breaking out, on a mission
If all that matters is mobile phones
The MEGApixels everyone owns
Why so keen to walk like me
The more I demonstrate my perfect insanity?

And we will never die by serious
And we will give up on success to make you smile
And then we'll live forever
And we will be those who still believe in us
And we will break our souls up for the ride
And then we'll live forever

I can't shake the feeling I'd have better spent my time
I'm looking for the answers instead of screaming clever rhymes

And we will never die by serious
And we will give up on success to make you smile
And then we'll live forever
And then we'll live forever

All the work of blistered hands
And all the worlds I understand
Can you see what I said
Was not that relevant
Waiting for me at the line
I'll meet you there in my own time
Forgive my confidence
You'll die with my regrets

And we will (we will, we will)
And we will (we will, we will)
And we will (we will, we will)
And we will (we will, we will)
And we will (we will, we will)
And we will (we will, we will)

Well that all sounds very interesting
I'm sorry, I wasn't listening

And we will never die by serious
And we will give up on success to make you smile
And then we'll live forever
