Lyrics

[00:01.88] The Leisure Society - Better Written Off
[00:28.82] From the darkest lows
[00:31.20]
[00:32.01] to the heavenly highs
[00:34.64]
[00:35.63] Another dream let go
[00:37.44]
[00:39.35] on every mantelpiece
[00:41.51]
[00:42.88] If you had your life
[00:44.63]
[00:46.26] to live over again
[00:48.01]
[00:49.76] would you do it in style
[00:52.01]
[00:53.76] or make those same mistakes?
[00:56.15]
[00:57.94] If I keep folding
[01:01.21] there'll be nothing left of me
[01:05.03] but these shapeless shoulders
[01:08.02]
[01:08.58] and this cold, dead smile
[01:11.65]
[01:12.21] These days are better written off than written down
[01:19.71]
[01:25.85] Will you live your life
[01:27.91]
[01:29.26] through a bustling child
[01:31.77]
[01:32.78] or will you sail the seas
[01:34.96]
[01:36.46] of self-discovery?
[01:38.66]
[01:40.15] Does it make you smile
[01:42.15]
[01:43.84] when you think of a rhyme
[01:45.59]
[01:47.22] or do you get tired
[01:49.46]
[01:51.27] just burning oxygen?
[01:53.65]
[01:55.34] If I keep folding
[01:58.45] there'll be nothing left of me
[02:02.32] but these shapeless shoulders
[02:05.51] and this cold, dead smile
[02:08.82]
[02:09.51] These days are better written off than written down
[02:17.39]
[02:30.45] Oh the wasted days
[02:32.34]
[02:33.72] and the promises made
[02:35.59]
[02:37.53] put the fear of God
[02:39.53]
[02:40.90] in every one of us
[02:43.46]
[02:44.59] Resolution see
[02:46.31]
[02:48.13] through the soles of your feet
[02:50.24]
[02:51.49] So find a girl you can reach
[02:53.98]
[02:55.32] ever the optimist
[02:57.63]
[02:59.82] If I keep folding
[03:03.01] there'll be nothing left of me
[03:06.94] but these shapeless shoulders
[03:10.01] and this cold, dead smile
[03:13.24]
[03:13.93] These days are better written off than written down
