Giants

Lyrics

[Verse 1] (Alright) Just give a little twist, little turn Keep on looking in the right direction, baby I'm alive with the line, with the lies But I kept on building it, building it, stack it up A little architect, you're crazy White shirt, black dress tie Dressed to the nine times too many times Couldn't wait to get out of the nightlife It's a straight lie [Chorus] Just calm down The trauma's on the inside My line's been drawn Just calm down The trauma's on the inside I don't want to be wasting time Wasting time [Verse 2] Do you think that you'd call me crazy? Contrary, and I shine amazing Hazing, aging process, called it quits And the quicksand I trudged through and everything I meant to Say so, so said the young ones, the dumb ones And "stupid" you called it, but I called it flawless Played out and fade out I planned it - pan left and right, set the curtain [Chorus] Just calm down The trauma's on the inside My line's been drawn Just calm down You know the trauma's on the inside I don't want to My ticket, my destination, singing "hallelujah" Oh god, I think I've really changed Wish you would love me all the same My dear, it's all for you And I will pay my dues I owe you so many years And it's coming to you [Verse 3] Don't say "calm down", and don't quit this sound I left 'cause I was bored at what might be in store Don't make a sound, 'cause I'll be 'round, oh See, I wish you could buckle up and take you chance You know I really do, really do And you really, really do - whoa Just come along, come along, come along Time's up, life's up, but I, I won't go [Chorus] My ticket, my destination, singing "hallelujah" Oh god, I think I've really changed Wish you would love me all the same My dear, it's all for you And I will pay my dues I owe you so many years And it's coming to you [Bridge] Hallelujah, hallelujah I've left town and I won't come home Ohio, I don't know, Michigindiana, California Where's home? Why, oh why, do eyes collide Why won't it feel the same, oh, why-oh? Wonder stands Why, oh why If words are right Why won't it feel the same, oh, why-oh? So now I won't play games, and I won't change [Chorus] My ticket, my destination, singing "hallelujah" Oh god, I think I've really changed Wish you would love me all the same My dear, it's all for you And I will pay my dues I owe you so many years And it's coming to you My dream and now I'm getting out I'm screaming "Hallelujah" Today's the day my life will change You're gonna make it all the same Darling, it's all for you and I will pay my dues I'm counting 4, 3, 2, 1
