Fat Freddy’s Drop - Dark Days lyrics

Learning to breathe again for the first time
In so long now learning to see again
Through my pride

Learning to speak again from my heart
Learning to be a friend for the first time
For the first time in so long
For so long for so long
For so long for so long
For so long for so long
For so long feel like I'm losing time
When I worry 'Cause yesterday won't change
Starting to free my mind
From the shadow of doubt
That keeps me in darkness

Testing the air outside my chamber
Into the danger pushing my limit's high
To the red line and over
And why have I waited so long
For so long for so long
For so long for so long
For so long for so long-
Oh

Why have I waited? Why have I waited, yeah

Well it's hard to be happy
In a world that's so cruel
Where the weak just get weaker
Where the powerful feud
Where the children go hungry
While the soldiers stand by, hey
Lay down your weapons
Take hold of your lives
And when will we learn
That it's hate that breeds hate?
Only love is the cure
Don't leave it too late get up, and feel it
The truth that won't wait
If we choose to do nothing
Then we take all the blame
