Living in Lightning Songtext
von City and Colour

I′d rather walk alone
Than stand in a row
I'd line up everything I own
Decide what should stay and what should go

This life was mine to choose
Yearning to wander through and through
At times I′ve been battered and bruised
But I'm still breathing in my youth


Can't you see I′m sorry that I wasn′t
Better at being who you wanted me to be
I've been living in lightning for what seems like eternity
You wear these brooding ghosts
Tighter and tighter round your throat
They′re weighing you down like a stone
They might never let you go

Can't you see I′m sorry that I wasn't
Better at being who you wanted me to be
I′ve been living in lightning for what seems like eternity
Ooh uh ooh uh ooh
I've been living in lightning for what seems like eternity
