Overtown - People Around Me lyrics

Running around the yard Chasing my reflection All the people around stopped And held a second Breathing the air of gold Most likely not the sunshine The spotlight didn’t do its job Like me sometimes And the people around me are so shallow Looking at the book Throwing it away What is it worth learning for? Looking for excitement In a world full of judgement The road to heaven is longer than I thought And the people around me are so shallow But I’m still here Waiting for the sunshine I lost my faith in those who promise Driving to a car crash Painting with me toothbrush Looking for a sign of light And the people around me are so shallow
