Lyrics Foster the People

Foster the People

SHC

You are our secret

It's worth keeping

And now I'm keeping my mouth shut

On the weekends

I won't hang out with anybody else

The pavement

Always baking

What's it want from me?

And I keep falling backwards

Looking for relief

Want to be free

I've been counting all the minutes

And the days have been counting me

I want to live my life again

But you won't

I'll never understand the waves

But you do

I didn't know I was afraid

But you do

I want to do it again

Well I've been sleeping

Waiting for something

But to feel nothing

At all, avoid the call

Sometimes I'm reckless

Sometimes misdirected

Sometimes when I'm tested

I tend to do nothing at all

When I'm alone

There's a ghost that keeps talking

And I know there's gotta be more

For sure

I want to live my life again

But you won't

I'll never understand the wind

But you do

I didn't know I was afraid

But you do

I want to do it again

I've been numb in my thoughts for hours

I know you wanted to save me from myself

We've been wilting and young for seeds

And I can't compete

Until I'm strung to the field

What's real?

I want to live my life again

But you won't

I'll never understand the wind

But you do

I didn't know I was afraid

But you do

I want to do it again

Do you want to live forever?

Do you want to live forever?

I would
