Dear Seattle – Afterthought lyrics
It feels so vain for me to say
You're trying to find the answer, in pushing me away
But I know, there's a part of you that's begging
That's begging me to stay

You tell me it's hopeless and that's okay
When have we ever been known to be the hopeful anyway?
Maybe I'm too set in my ways

I'm wasting time and I'm heading nowhere
Hope tells me that I'm getting somewhere soon
I'm treading light but I'm getting nowhere
Hope tells me that I'm getting somewhere soon, without you

Of all of the words you say
I never would've thought that I'd end up this way
As I'd planned; As a man with a sense of content since I heard you say
"Stop trying to be "somebody"
You've got no job and you're wasting money
You live with your mum and you pay her nothing
I know I'm nothing

But I'm just trying to be somebody
I've got no job and I've got no money
I think with my dick and I over-drink
But at least I'm fucking happy

I'm wasting time and I'm heading nowhere
Hope tells me that I'm getting somewhere soon
I'm treading light but I'm getting nowhere
Hope tells me that I'm getting somewhere soon, without you

Nothing
I'm nothing
Nothing
I'm nothing
