Sitting In The Dark

[Intro]
Take it or leave it
Take it or leave it now
Do whatever helps you sleep at night
Believe me
Take it or leave it now
Take it or leave it now
Do whatever gets you by, this time
'Cause nobody's putting you on trial
Guilt got you going out of style, I'm sure

[Verse 1]
"Don't go roaming on your own"
That's what the old man said to me
Shit'll make you sensitive
Don't go it alone
So I went and learnt my Mother's tongue
To make her feel like she ain't the only one
Made sure my brother knew he was loved
We're a family now
I ain't letting life slip by no more
'Cause when you ain't got a choice it reveals the flaws
Still trying to learn what I was running from
All of my days
Nobody's putting you on trial
Guilt got you going out of style, I'm sure

[Chorus]
When it all comes falling down
When it all comes falling down
Would I be a little little less selfish
When everything around us is melting
When it all comes falling down
When it all comes falling down
Would you feel a little little less helpless
Today!

[Verse 1]
What are you sitting in the dark for?
Like you're developing photographs
Cut yourself a little slack, snap out of it
Your dreams ain't going anywhere
But the ones you love might not be there
It was so damn clear you didn't care
Is that what you want?
Don't drift a million miles away
Go show them you're here to stay
Don't let emotions be betrayed
'Cause we're a family now
Used to drive 'round town in a bust up scrap-heap city rover
At least I had my friends 'round me back then
Look at me I'm a big-shot up-and-coming
'Gotta put the work' in HA HA HA!
Now I don't know one day from the next

[Chorus]
When it all comes falling down
When it all comes falling down
Would I be a little little less selfish
When everything around us is melting
When it all comes falling down
When it all comes falling down
Would you feel a little little less helpless
Today!
