It's not a phase or a method to detach You can't make a judgement without the facts You don't know whats best for me oh Stop thinking you know whats best for me It's not a matter thats worth another turn Nothing more then a deflective chain of words You don't know whats best for me Stop thinking you know whats best for me I hope these roots come and tie to our legs You put your best bet on a lucky number And read aloud the things you don't wanna do ♪ These dark waters look like tumbling words Every wave a sentence that I heard There's more to life than misery There's more to life than these mean streets This stark divide, it stands perfectly still Separating me from what I will There's more to life than misery There's more to life then these mean streets I hope these roots come and tie to our legs You put your best bet on a lucky number And read aloud the things you don't wanna do And you're hanging off trees in peculiar ways You're climbing up and staying high for days I'm gonna cut you down I'm gonna cut you off And you're hanging off trees in peculiar ways You're climbing up and staying high for days I'm gonna cut you down I'm gonna cut you off ♪ I hope these roots come and tie to our legs You put your best bet on a lucky number And read aloud the things you don't wanna do And you're hanging off trees in peculiar ways You're climbing up and staying high for days I'm gonna cut you down I'm gonna cut you off
