Concrete - The Ready Set

Mornings built on bad nights

Those conversations led to vacations I needed

Systematic meltdown

The situation, we need to face it

Melodramatic, or maybe you’re manic

I’m sympathetic, accepting you for every flaw

At least I tried to see the world through your eyes

(It's like I’m dancing with)

Concrete strapped to my feet

Tossed out into the sea

Why you gotta scream at me

When everyone is listening (Yeah-ah)

Calm down, you’re waving that gun too fast

You’ve got to breathe

How am I gonna talk to you?

When I’m wearing bricks for shoes, yeah

R-e-t-e-e

Cling on tight to loose-ends

Claim that I frayed them, when I tried to save them

I couldn’t do it

Vodka-tonic freak out

Is twenty really that tiring?

'Cause lately you’re spiraling down

Melodramatic, or maybe you’re manic

I’m sympathetic, accepting you for every flaw

At least I tried to see the world through your eyes

(It's like I’m dancing with)

Concrete strapped to my feet

Tossed out into the sea

Why you gotta scream at me

When everyone is listening (Yeah-ah)

Calm down, you’re waving that gun too fast

You’ve got to breathe

How am I gonna talk to you?

When I’m wearing bricks for shoes, yeah

R-e-t-e-e

And tell me when we’ll get this, when we’ll get this off the ground

Feels like never (Never)

I’ll be spending my nights, spending my nights on the town

No sleep ever (Ever)

(It's like I’m dancing with)

Concrete strapped to my feet

Tossed out into the sea

Why you gotta scream at me

When everyone is listening (Yeah-ah)

Calm down you’re waving that gun too fast

You’ve got to breathe

How am I gonna talk to you?

When I’m wearing bricks for shoes, yeah

R-e-t-e-e
