Like a rosebud I could have been someone She spoke so plainly Like it´s all been said and done I stirred my coffee
And stared off into space It´s hard to know exactly what the right thing is to say Time bleeds out Gotta find a quick solution To get up off the ground Dreams unbound Will we ever stop believing We´ll never make it out
Oh, I I can sing alright Good at making light But I never learnt to firefight
So this rosebud Why will it never show? Who exactly told you
That you´ll never get to grow? I look around us You´re right where you should be But there´s a rope around your neck That only you can see
Oh, I I can sing alright Good at making light But I never learnt to firefight Oh, I If I hold on tight Get it nearly right Will I ever learn to sleep at night?
Everyone is moving on I thought by now I might belong Maybe feel a little wiser
I don´t feel old enough To feel too young for giving up Oh, I used to be a diver Now I´m scared to be a few miles from the sun
Oh, I Oh, I Oh, I I can sing alright Good at making light But I never learnt to firefight Oh, I If I hold on tight Get it nearly right Will I ever learn to firefight?
