Life Trainee - SOAK

I know that look, your puppy eyes

Like your forehead has a vacancy sign

Swingin' a bag like the palm of a hand

Always late to the party 'cause you never want to land

Smilin' at strangers, it’s normal behaviour

But it’s new to me, I’m a life trainee

Screaming at carpets, please pardon my darkness

I’m present, not just here, for the first time this year

Is it just me

Or is everyone lost too?

What fazed me before leaves me cold and bored

This sadness addict just couldn’t hack it

A life trainee, learnin' happy

Let’s be honest, I’m a work in progress

Your bedroom’s not the same room

Your next birthdays come all too soon

I used to be so sure before

I realised I knew nothin' at all

Is it just me

Or is everybody starin' at their shoes?

Is it just me

Or is everyone lost too?

What fazed me before leaves me cold and bored

This sadness addict just couldn’t hack it

A life trainee, learnin' happy

Let’s be honest, I’m a work in progress

But I’ll solve it
