Written by Tegan, “Divided” is about the early days of the band when they graduated high school and wanted to make a living from their music. Sara was hesitant about it, wondering if she should find another path for herself.
[Verse]
Go downtown to catch the early movie
The shows are cheaper
They don't mind if you put your feet up
She's out on the highway
She's got a homemade sign it says
Go ahead, try to figure out
What my future looks like
I don't want to live my life like a story
Always thinking I could have been something
Don't run along side and control me
Just film away and let me be
[Chorus]
At ease I, I feel fine
I'll go on, I move on
There's something so divided
Don't worry about me I'll be fine
Don't live your life for me or for anyone
Live your life as if you're one
Live your life as if you're one
And find quiet, it's awful quiet
At ease I, I feel fine
I'll go on, I move on
There's something so divided
Don't worry about me I'll be fine
Don't live your life for me or for anyone
Live your life as if you're one
Live your life as if you're one
And find quiet, it's awful quiet
[Outro]
How can you be mad we just got started
I want to shave my head
Lie in bed all day long
How can you be mad we just got started
Live your life as if you're one
