It’s a long way ‘round
The other side of this dull June
You couldn’t make me happy for one day
Throwing every year back in my face
When September comes
I hope that I will be removed
From thinking every lesson is a chance
To focus on the past I could’ve had
Get up
Get up
Get up now
This is my reaction
I’m looking for distractions
Just for one day
I can only hold what’s mine
I am running short on time
Looking for some peace of mind
Just for one day
Read my eyes
I’m the only one who’s not surprised
I’ll live and laugh a thousand times again
Yet circle back to doubts that fill my head
Get up
Get up
Get up now
This is my reaction
I’m looking for distractions
Just for one day
I can only hold what’s mine
I am running short on time
Looking for some peace of mind
Just for one day
Is this a life that’s worth living
Or is this just one fucked up evening
Tell me how I’m supposed to answer that
Make me an offer that’s worth taking
A high risk bet
Yeah that’s real shady
Don’t you worry
I won’t tell a soul
I can only hold what’s mine
I am running short on time
Looking for some peace
Some peace of mind
