Lyrics

thirsty

It's been a couple months now It's getting hard to slow down Things are spinning out of my control It's a difficult arrangement Embracing my displacement When everywhere and nowhere feels like home Fill this space with a song I'm tired of singing I don't wanna think about the silence Brand new faces, always gotta mingle So I don't have to figure out who I am, oh So thirsty for attention So hungry for your love An honourable mention is never good enough So thirsty for attention So hungry for your love An honourable mention is never good enough The poison in the chalice The chemical imbalance Sleeping in a bed I didn't make There's something in the water Or something 'bout a daughter Everything and nothing stays the same If home plate's safety, I'm at first base Still learning how to play it by the book now I can't turn back, can't stay in one place But the field feels bigger than it looks though So thirsty for attention So hungry for your love An honourable mention is never good enough So thirsty for attention So hungry for your love An honourable mention is never good enough Nothing stays the same
