Its all there underneath
everything we love and need
you and I
Look around you will see
broken minds and shattered dreams
wasted time
But I don't mind losing sleep
squeezing through the cracks between
day and night
Its such a longshot
everything that we've got
just living on this rock
surrounded by the sea
With our shoes off
balancing on rooftops
you put your faith in preachers
I put my faith in me
Given time we could have seen
all the things he could have been
if you tried
But he settled for the english dream
bathed in mediocrity
stood in line
But thats not enough for me
I will kick and scream
tell you why
Its such a longshot
everything that we've got
just living on this rock
surrounded by the sea
With our shoes off
balancing on rooftops
you put your faith in preachers
I put my faith in me
I dont want to waste your time
I dont want to waste your time
Its such a longshot
everything that we've got
just living on this rock
surrounded by the sea
With our shoes off
balancing on rooftops
you put your faith in preachers
I put my faith in me
Its such a longshot
everything that we've got
just living on this rock
surrounded by the sea
With our shoes off
balancing on rooftops
you put your faith in preachers
I put my faith in me
