lirik lagu eric liu - tents on the pavement
[verse 1]
if i wrote young me a letter, i don’t know what i’d say
i’ve got so many dreams, and my dreams start to change
envision my future inside of each mapped out light
two~story houses with nothing to offer
by boring downtowns when the weather gets hotter
white picket fences distract from the horror inside
[pre~chorus]
(ooh~ooh~ooh)
this internal war inside my head
reads in verses sentiment, i can’t pick sides
(ooh~ooh~ooh)
plagued by my self~consciousness
what’s worth hoping to impress the voice inside? it tells me
[chorus]
quit writing songs you know won’t go famous
or you’ll live alone, pitching tents on the pavement
fold up your wings, your dream’s not worth chasing
there’s no big break like the one you’ve been waiting for
once you’re older, there’s no chance to fix it
so be an adult, and dream more realistic
but castles in pages, it all sounds like prison
if i die a fool, at least i’ll die living
[verse 2]
and there’s so much pressure, i’m the only child
i should graduate college, and work for a while
adjusting my reflection ’til i’m worthy in uncle sam’s eyes
[pre~chorus]
(ooh~ooh~ooh)
i’m chasing a future that’s not mine
hid in a stranger fit disguise they made for me
(ooh~ooh~ooh)
they call my hunger asinine
warn me from wasting all my time on make believe, they tell me
[chorus]
quit writing songs you know won’t go famous
or you’ll live alone, pitching tents on the pavement
fold up your wings, your dream’s not worth chasing
there’s no big break like the one you’ve been waiting for
once you’re older, there’s no chance to fix it
so be an adult, and dream more realistic
but castles in pages, it all sounds like prison
if i die a fool, at least i’ll die living
[bridge]
when i grow older, will it still haunt me?
or will i forget all the wants i’ve been wanting?
what if everything changes, would i still be me?
i’m losing my voice, i don’t have a choice
please give me a chance to just breathe
to just breathe
please give me a chance to just breathe
they tell me
[chorus]
quit writing songs you know won’t go famous
or you’ll live alone, pitching tents on the pavement
fold up your wings, your dream’s not worth chasing
there’s no big break like the one you’ve been waiting for
once you’re older, there’s no chance to fix it
so be an adult, and dream more realistic
but castles in pages, it all sounds like prison
if i die a fool, at least i’ll die living
