Eat Defeat - Shortcuts
Carrying on all alone
People and places change but I just seem to stay the same
And I know it's hard for you to relate to what I've been through
But just know i'm happy and i'm doing what i wanna do
I can't change no matter what you do
I'm just set in my ways but I'm not judging you
I've always been this way
Naive enough to say that I think I'm gonna be ok
When you're taking shortcuts you're just missing out on everything
I'll take the long way round, be lost and never found
You'll get there faster but I'm built to last
Keeping cool while you're burning out
Spent half my life it seems, chasing after all my dreams
You'd think I'd have caught them by now but they keep outrunning me
I can't fake this, it's make or break
If I knew what I know now i'd do it again
I can't change no matter what you do
I'm just set in my ways but I'm not judging you
When you're taking shortcuts you're just missing out on everything
I'll take the long way round, be lost and never found
You'll get there faster but I'm built to last
Keeping cool while you're burning out
And I know there's nothing that i'd rather do
I'd travel days just to waste time with you
And when my body breaks down and my money runs out
At least I'll have something to sing about
You're taking shortcuts
When you're taking shortcuts you're just missing out on everything
I'll take the long way round, be lost and never found
You'll get there faster but I'm built to last
Keeping cool while you're burning out
You're taking shortcuts
We're keeping cool while you're burning out
We're keeping cool while you're burning, but you'll never learn

So say hello to selfishness because I'm putting myself first Turns out what i thought was for the best turned out to be the worst Life is always about compromise but does it have to
Eat Defeat - Not Today, Old Friend
Not today old friend I'm trying to pretend that everything's just fine, and I'm not just wasting my time But I can't have this conversation for the fifteen hundredth time
