this song is about Ben’s feelings, he feels as he’s alone, after his mother’s death, he can’t talk to his dad about it.
[BEN]
The wolves surround our camp
They own the lands on which we tread
Where danger lurks with every breath
Because nature doesn't care
No, nature doesn't care
The wolves still salivate
Do do do do (Do do do do)
Do do do do (Do do do do)
Do do do do (Do do do do)
Do do (Do do)
All these years of solitude
Have made me stupid and deluded
And now my future has been skewed
From all the damage all the untrue did
Who's to blame for a life unlived?
And who's to say how to get a grip?
Ooh
Ooh
Every song I've ever heard
Are just the ones that I got sung
Made of lies that all have blurred
Sold to me 'cause I was young
[BEN & OLIVIA, BEN]
Who's to blame for whats left unsaid
Not the ones who hearing it
And who's to say how to get a grip
Not the one who's gripping it
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh
[OLIVIA]
Woah woah woah woah
Woah woah woah
Woah woah woah woah
[BEN, BEN & OLIVIA]
Get in the car, we're going south
Out of the coldest cold
Where only the loneliest get sent
That's why we went
So we'd be free to do the things we'd only dreamed of
Worlds that you could build and fill at will and call it freedom
People who are perfect, 'cause you're the one who made them
Real ones disappoint you, it's better to create them
Real ones disappoint you
It's better to create them
Ooh
[BEN BEN & OLIVIA]
Who's to blame for a life unlived?
Not the one who's living it
And who's to say how to get a grip?
Not the one who's gripping it
And who's to blame for a life unlived?
Not the one who's living it
And who's to say how to get a grip?
Not the one who's gripping it
[OLIVIA (BEN)]
Woah woah woah woah
Woah woah woah (Not the one who's gripping it)
Woah woah woah woah
[BEN]
Finally out here, outside
Breaking the gates open wide
Running 'cause I cannot hide anymore
Staring at the same endless sky
Seeing all the stars with new eyes
If all my choices aren't mine
Who are they for?
Woah woah woah woah
Woah woah woah
Woah woah woah woah
Woah woah woah
Woah woah woah woah
