Be Sensible Lyrics

Let me have the keys and you can take a rest
From one lifeless main street until the next
Who knows what there was to see
Before the light turned green
There's so much here to learn
The static or the silence don't know which is worse
The dial isn't broken that's the way it works
To the new professionals
Irregular is normal
It'll all in how you pray
Not what needs to change

Don't get comfortable
Don't be sensible
Swing with all you have
Stop me if you can

Imagine we had canvas with our midnight cold
We'd dig our fingers in and then we'd watch the snow
Maybe i need stronger meds
Don't let those feelings in
I can't get closer now
Matter's straight across and just for me to use
But theres always another choice, another way through
The notes of progress float along
Over your candle song
The game is how you play
Not who wears a ring

Don't get comfortable
Don't be sensible
Swing with all you have
Stop me if you can

I'm on the losing side
Not everytime
I'm gonna lose this love of mine
Here are the words to find
Not one is mine
Why are we still so afraid?
The things we do deserve their rightful names

Don't get comfortable
Don't be sensible
Swing with all you have
Stop me if you can

Don't get comfortable
Don't be sensible
Swing with all you have
Stop me if you can

I'm on the losing side
Not everytime
I'm gonna lose this love of mine
Here are the words to find
Not one is mine
Why are we still so afraid?
The things we do deserve their rightful names

quite disappointed that this song didn't make the cut such a great song.

"Be Sensible" and "Stop" will possibly come out in the EP or in the singles and such. that's what they did with "Shame" "You" and "When I Want". Can't wait to find out! and the new album is awesome!
