Dead Ends

Lyrics by：Benjamin Cooper

Composed by：Benjamin Cooper

Hello hope it's been a while

I thought I was d**ned to watch life through my hands

Now I'm not in the place I thought I'd be

Makes looking back a whole lot simpler

I thought that I could be the difference

I thought I could outsmart all the pain

But like life advice that's

Scrawled across a bathroom stall

It wasted everyone's time

So now I'm saying goodbye

And I'm learning to fend for myself

Now we started playing with fire

Believing that it would just keep us warm

Well there's no need to run

When you're traveling down the wrong road

No yeah there's no need to run

When you're traveling down the wrong road

Can't see the forest for the trees

Heard it plenty of times but now I know what it means

If you hold too tight you're bound to lose

The very things you've decided are precious

Now I've learned I'm not so special

No need to carry all that weight

You don't have to ask if you're allowed to fall apart

So now I just say

There ain't no fixing this

But I like that you tried

Sometimes the hardest part is being right

There ain't no helping me

But I like that you lied

Sometimes it's worth the burn marks to feel the light

And I don't wanna know why

I just want to know how to move on now

The past is buried in time

And the future's an anxious invention

Oh and you never arrive

Unless you accept your dead ends

Yeah you will never arrive

Unless you make peace with your dead ends
