Lyrics
The Things That You Get Used To?
© 2017 Michael R. J. Roth & Harri Wolf
Dying's not as easy as it used to be
Living's just a habit I fell into
The future that I planned is just a memory
Funny about the things that you get used to?
Dark clouds and a raging wind gonna bring a driving rain?But you won't budge an inch until it moves you
You can bleed 'n' wait to die without feeling any pain?Ain't it funny about the things that you get used to
I regret the words I didn't say lying in your bed
Knowing that without them I would lose you
I fell into your arms and you just left me there for dead
Ain't it funny about the things that you get used to?
Bridge:
I'm standing on the shoreline
Of an ocean I can't see
Waiting for the tide to roll on in
I might need to make a stand
Or find a dream to set me free
But I'm not givin' in
A silent breeze sneaks up on me in the dead of night
The ghosts of every heart I brought the blues to
And the stars look down like angels
Trying to teach my soul to fly
Ain't it funny about the things that you get used to
Yeah, ain't it funny about the things that you get used to
