Part Time Believer

[Verse 1] We've run out of reason Losing sight of what it's supposed to be A part time believer 'til truth We've somehow conceded This sense of self-evasive solitude It means way too much to me [Pre-Chorus] And I hope you know How lucky you are [Chorus] Oh, I remember sitting back on my balcony I was a-listening to the Rolling Stones See, I was waiting for my dad to come home from work So I could show him all the chords that I'd learnt See, I was under the impression I was gonna lead Some kind of simple, understated life But now I'm living in the shadows of a memory And I hope so, man, I hope so [Verse 2] It's been way too long It seems that I can't celebrate my meaning For I am too young to mourn And if it won't release It pulls and it pushes me 'til I wither 'Til I wither, 'til I wither [Pre-Chorus] And I hope you know How lucky you are [Chorus] Oh, I remember sitting back on my balcony I was a-listening to the Rolling Stones See, I was waiting for my dad to come home from work So I could show him all the chords that I'd learnt See, I was under the impression I was gonna lead Some kind of simple, understated life But now I'm living in the shadows of a memory And I hope so, man, I hope so [Bridge] And, oh, you dare, you run like a lion To defend your senses And, oh, it seems it cuts at the core It's not the same, my friend, no more Oh no [Outro] See, I was waiting for my dad to come home from work
