Streetlight Manifesto 1234 1234 lyrics

You, you try, you try to get by
You're never gonna pull it off, you shouldn't even try
You're a wet cigarette, you're always second best
They're never going to give a shit about anybody but themselves

So you fight for them to realize
There's more to life, there's more to you
There's more than meets the eye

And when you're done, the battle's been won
You sit back, you smile
And this is what you hum, you hum

Whoa, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh
1234, 1234

You, you try, you try to get by
You're never gonna pull it off, you shouldn't even try
You're a wet cigarette, you're always second best
They're never going to give a shit about anybody but themselves

So you fight for them to realize
There's more to life, there's more to you
There's more than meets the eye

And when you're done, the battle's been won
You sit back, you smile
And this is what you hum, you hum

Whoa, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh
1234, 1234


Years go by, the time, it does fly
Every single second is a moment in time
It passes, oh, so quick and it seems like nothing
But when you're looking back, well, it amounts to everything

Well, I've got myself, I've got my friends
I've got my little family, but that's not where it ends
This one goes out to you, it goes out to everyone
It's in the name of honesty because life has just begun

Whoa, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh
1234, 1234

Look around, little brother, can you tell me what you see?
You're a big boy now, so take responsibility
You never had it hard, but now it's getting tough
So you,whine, whine, whine and you say you've had enough

You say, I'm full of shit, that I'm a hypocrite
I shouldn't talk when I can't take the advice that I give
Well, maybe you're right, but open your eyes
The main difference here is that I try, try, try

Whoa, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh
1234, 1234

Whoa, oh, oh, whoa, oh, oh
