Contractual (feat. Callum Litchfield) [Acoustic]

Last time I checked this wasn't real life
And we were just kids
And last time I checked I wasn't a mess
Just a little undid
Last time I checked
Last time I checked
Last time I checked I didn't agree to this
And I never signed a contract

Growing up wasn't part of the plan
And I was never really a fan of
Getting old or giving up
But it seems inevitable now

Naivety's never been so appealing
I'm obsessed with ignoring the feeling
I'm about to have to start dealing
In unfamiliar things

Consequences have never been so dire
All the pain that living will inspire
Has got me running from all that I admire
To avoid the feeling

Cinderblocks on your feet, it's time to float now
You gotta swim or find yourself drowning
Roses rise from your face, you gotta cut them
No one can see that you are full of lovely
Or God forbid they deem you the weak link
And cast you from the cast, you become nothing

Naivety's never been so appealing
I'm obsessed with ignoring the feeling
I'm about to have to start dealing
In unfamiliar things

Consequences have never been so dire
All the pain that living will inspire
Has got me running from all that I admire
To avoid the feeling
I'm sinking in unfamiliar things

And I don't want to waste my time
Just trying to get by
And I don't want to waste my time
Just trying to get by

Naivety's never been so appealing (never so appealing)
I'm obsessed with ignoring the feeling (obsessed with the feeling)
I'm about to have to start dealing (have to start dealing)
In unfamiliar things

Consequences have never been so dire (never been so dire)
All the pain that living will inspire (living will inspire)
Has got me running from all that I admire (I admire)
To avoid the feeling

I'm sinking in unfamiliar things
To avoid the feeling
I'm sinking in unfamiliar things
