Keep Reaching

You made your bed last night and dragged your sorry state through the day.

Life's just black and white,

Stop trying to colour it in,

You think you have the answers,

But the questions keep on coming,

You made your bed last night,

And dragged your sorry state through the day,

Is your fate supposed to go this way?

And the romancers are in the sunshine,

As day turns to night them underage chancers are in the club line,

And you sleep with a girl that's not yours nor mine,

Stop chasing a dream and read the signs,

There's black gold under the water,

But I'm drowning tryna reach,

And just when you thinking it's got ya,

You lie choking on the beach,

And life goes on and on and on and on and on,

I'm still searching for my luck,

I've found none x
