The Strand – You Bet Right lyrics

You wanna lie and tell the world that it's alright?
You wanna give em what they want to pacify?
You wanna live with plastic smiles and curt replies?

You wanna lie?

Well it's hard to tell
It's like I never said farewell
I watch the ships set sail into the night
Well it's hard to tell
When it's time to ring the bell
I'm stronger now
But you bet right

And I know what it meant to me
And I know she felt the same
But it's been six months since we went walking
And the future's still miles away

You were right
I'm not okay

Today my world is spinning
Tomorrow never arrives
They say that time is medicine
Well I don't think I'm healing right

[Stereo Subconscious]

Back to stitching up my bitching mouth
Back to stitching up the mouth
Back to wishing I were far away
Back to wishing I'm away
Back to feeling I didn't give enough
Back to thinking stupid thoughts

Back to flinching when I hear your name

Today my world is spinning
Tomorrow never arrives
They say that time is medicine
Well I don't think I'm healing right

Smash the kind of tale I wanna tell
Smash the kind of game I wanna play
Smash the kind of view I'de like to have
It's all the same
I'm still the same
