[ Featuring Sam Lea ]
Wake up, the loamy ground of the leaves
Run fast, the bracken grazes your knees
You're unwise
You're weaving through life
You don't get paper-cuts now you're tall
You don't get help to get dressed at all
Go outdoors, because outside there's more to see
Never could have been anything less than the cream
There never could have been anything more that you needed to learn
Or needed to earn
Now you drive as fast as you should. Once ran as fast as you could
You used to laugh more than your parents for sure
See them soon, sooner or longer, don't blink now because they'll be gone
And the ageing game is never the slow lane
Don't forget the people that raised you up
Trade the feeling up, and leave the road
When you can believe enough that you can share the load
Once you come to feel again, expand to fill the holes
Then you will remember that, you are not as old as you think you are
Now that you've found yourself a girl
Now that you've seen the world
You're dying to come home
You were lying to yourself that you'd outgrown it
You're needing to write down
The thoughts that you used to make you feel proud
Telegram link to link to link
Carrier, won't you think what's written in the message
Or even if she'll get what the words mean?
Trade the feeling up, and leave the road
When you can believe enough that you can share the load
Once you come to feel again, expand to fill the holes
Then you will remember that, you are not as old as you think you are
