Tom McRae - None of This Really Matters lyrics
[Tom McRae - None of This Really Matters lyrics]
Sorry to be late, I was busy tempting fate
Guess that's always been my role
And I've been walking to the beat of
Every funeral I meet
It's been November in my soul
I spent the winter tying knots
Spent the summer getting lost
'Til I could not see the shore
And I was chasing fame and love
Turns out none of them's enough
I do not want this any more
I do not want this any more
'Cause none of this really matters
None of this really matters
None of this really matters any more
Well my fear once filled the skies
Like a Red-winged blackbird cry
But, I'm done with that it seems
Go ahead and light my funeral pyre
I've escaped more beds on fire
Than I have had sweet dreams
And I used to duck a punch
Drink myself no longer drunk
Now I'm running down the clock
And there's a flag flying on my street
One of permanent defeat
But, I do not give a fuck
No I do not give a fuck
'Cause none of this really matters
None of this really matters
None of this really matters any more
No none of this really matters
None of this really matters
None of this really matters any more
Well my country it's gone mad and
Every way it turns out bad
Tell me again what it is you think you've won
And don't sell me your cheap hope
I'll take a length of good, strong rope
It'll serve me when time comes
And we've drained the future dry and
Now we're eyeing up the sky
Like there's time to save the race
Yeah and there's nothing left to steal
We're pissing on the rear right wheel
Like we're headed into space
Like we're headed into space
And from the island to the hills
Got my own white whale to kill
I'm still haunted by the ghost
Yeah but I still hear the call
A Catskill Eagle in my soul
Yeah and I got more than most
Yeah, I got more than most
Yeah, I got more than most
'Cause none of this really matters
None of this really matters
None of this really matters any more
No none of this really matters
None of this really matters
None of this really matters any more
In a world on fire, a world on
Fire, in a world on fire, a world on fire
None of this really matters
None of this really matters
None of this really matters any more
None of this really matters
None of this really matters
None of this really matters any more
Guess that's always been my role
And I've been walking to the beat of
Every funeral I meet
It's been November in my soul
I spent the winter tying knots
Spent the summer getting lost
'Til I could not see the shore
And I was chasing fame and love
Turns out none of them's enough
I do not want this any more
I do not want this any more
'Cause none of this really matters
None of this really matters
None of this really matters any more
Well my fear once filled the skies
Like a Red-winged blackbird cry
But, I'm done with that it seems
Go ahead and light my funeral pyre
I've escaped more beds on fire
Than I have had sweet dreams
And I used to duck a punch
Drink myself no longer drunk
Now I'm running down the clock
And there's a flag flying on my street
One of permanent defeat
But, I do not give a fuck
No I do not give a fuck
'Cause none of this really matters
None of this really matters
None of this really matters any more
No none of this really matters
None of this really matters
None of this really matters any more
Well my country it's gone mad and
Every way it turns out bad
Tell me again what it is you think you've won
And don't sell me your cheap hope
I'll take a length of good, strong rope
It'll serve me when time comes
And we've drained the future dry and

'Cause none of this really matters
None of this really matters
None of this really matters any more
No none of this really matters
None of this really matters
None of this really matters any more
In a world on fire, a world on
Fire, in a world on fire, a world on fire
None of this really matters
None of this really matters
None of this really matters any more
None of this really matters
None of this really matters
None of this really matters any more
