[Verse 1]
I haven't ever really found a place that I call home
I never stick around quite long enough to make it
I apologise that once again I'm not in love
But it's not as if I mind that your heart ain't exactly breaking
[Pre-Chorus]
It's just a thought, only a thought
[Chorus]
But if my life is for rent
And I don't learn to buy
Well, I deserve nothing more than I get
'Cause nothing I have is truly mine
[Verse 2]
I've always thought that I would love to live by the sea
To travel the world alone and live more simply
I have no idea what's happened to that dream
'Cause there's really nothing left here to stop me
[Pre-Chorus]
It's just a thought, only a thought
[Chorus]
If my life is for rent
And I don't learn to buy
Well, I deserve nothing more than I get
'Cause nothing I have is truly mine
If my life is for rent
And I don't learn to buy
Well, I deserve nothing more than I get
'Cause nothing I have is truly mine
[Bridge]
While my heart is a shield and I won't let it down
While I am so afraid to fail so I won't even try
Well, how can I say I'm alive?
[Chorus]
If my life is for rent
And I don't learn to buy
Well, I deserve nothing more than I get
'Cause nothing I have is truly mine
If my life is for rent
And I don't learn to buy
Well, I deserve nothing more than I get
'Cause nothing I have is truly mine
[Outro]
'Cause nothing I have is truly mine
'Cause nothing I have is truly mine
'Cause nothing I have is truly mine
