I'm Not Sure What It Is - Badly Drawn Boy

I’m tired of climbing ladders

Just to slip down all the snakes

Enough of swings and roundabouts

Just to make the same mistakes

My patterns of behaviour

Are beginning to wear thin

Can see the destination

But never sure where to begin

Sometimes I’m not sure just what it is

There are days where I remember to exist

I’m so blessed to have you by my side

The true test is how you feel when you’re alone

The best part is that the future’s unknown

And the next part of our story’s untold

I’ll know what I want

When I see what it is

At least we tried something

Even if nothing comes of it

Seems like the real things

Have all turned out to be fake

Spent half my life sleeping

And the second half awake

Sometimes I’m not sure just what it is

There are days where I remember to exist

I’m so blessed to have you by my side

The true test is how you feel when you’re alone

The best part is that the future’s unknown

And the next part of our story’s untold

Put your head in my hands

Let this feeling move on

Something that was there

That is afterwards gone

Take good care of this child

Who lives on in my soul

That half-smile in the mirror

Placed with mine becomes whole

Sometimes I’m not sure just what it is

There are days where I remember to exist

I’m so blessed to have you by my side

The true test is how you feel when you’re alone

The best part is that the future’s unknown

And the next part of our story’s untold

Sometimes I’m not sure just what it is

There are days where I remember to exist

I’m so blessed to have you by my side

The true test is how you feel when you’re alone

The best part is that the future’s unknown

And the next part of our story’s untold
