Living in Lightning

I'd rather walk alone

Than stand in a row

I'd line up everything I own

Decide what should stay and should go

This life was mine to choose

Yearning to wander through and through

At times I've been battered and bruised

But I'm still breathing in my youth

Can't you see I'm sorry that I

Wasn't better at being

Who you wanted me to be

I've been living in lightning

For what seems like eternity

You wear these brooding ghosts

Tighter and tighter round your throat

They're weighing you down like a stone

They might never let you go

Can't you see I'm sorry that I

Wasn't better at being

Who you wanted me to be

I've been living in lightning

For what seems like eternity

I've been living in lightning

For what seems like eternity
