vayda otti - truman show Lyrics

I think we played pretend as kids so that when we'd get older
We'd not have to think about the things that made us colder
Taught to play it safe so we stay on the same trajectories
Never veer off course to scope out other possibilities
Just keep your head down
And don't mess around
Don't bother to swim, who cares if you drown, drown, drown
Made it so to life we'd think that there is nothing more
Something comes to knock but don't you dare open the door
I think I'll end up wishing that I chose to do more with my life
But they never let me, so I never tried
Just keep your head down
And don't mess around
Don't bother to swim, who cares if you drown, drown, drown
I'm bounded by choices I did not decide
I looked at my future, and I took in the tides
As they rose more than I thought that I could bear
I saw through them enough to know that it's not fair
That we live in a world that's so guided by fear
I could cry till I drown, but they'd say dry your tears
How's it going to end
If all I do is pretend
I'm not sick of this lifestyle
Picket fences and fake smiles
How much longer can persuasions last
Kinda scared to know but I asked
Is it all in my head
What could happen instead
Just keep your head down
And don't mess around
Don't bother to swim, who cares if you drown
