Dirt

I've been trying to write something
For what feels like a hundred years
Just going down, down this spiral at home
Watching these singers on my phone

And I wish this was something new
If there's something I'm missing
Please tell me I'm through
And I will stop wasting time with these words
And start burying it all in the dirt

This time last year I was training away
Out of sight in a foreign place
Where I learnt to be by myself
Yeah I learnt to be someone else

And I wish this was something new
If there's something I'm missing
Please tell me I'm through
And I will stop wasting time with these words
And start burying it all in the dirt

These strange kinds of battles we have to win
Where it's been chosen before we could weigh in
We've been here for a while now with nothing to show
I guess that's how it goes

This time last week I was wasting away
Hoping something would slow the decay
It's the science that explains the fall
It's the gravity of getting old

And I wish this was something new
If there's a good way to say it
Please tell me the rules
And I will stop wasting time with these words
And start burying it all in the dirt
Yeah I'll start burying it all in the dirt
