From the recording Artificial Nature
Lyrics
[Chorus]
I guess it's so true
We're shaped by the things we go through
That's why you only know the small percentage that I show you
You think I'm so dumb
But really I'm just so done
My head's numb
You've fed from my bread crumbs
Get going now
[Verse 1]
They don't know that I'm in pain
I'm here try'na find my lane
I'll admit when I'm wrong but there's a time and place
Ladies give me that love but despite the praise
I still cut my nose off to spite my face
I made mistakes
Come on
Thinking I'm a man with a plot
But I'm living in the land of the lost
Wanting to abandon the lot
Damn it, I'm wrong
Try'na shake the hands on the clock
'cause if I could make a deal with time
Then I could deal with time
I could heal this mind
Life don't feel real sometimes
[Chorus]
I guess it's so true
We're shaped by the things we go through
That's why you only know the small percentage that I show you
You think I'm so dumb
But really I'm just so done
My head's numb
You've fed from my bread crumbs
Get going now
[Bridge]
I've been drowning in my pain
I've been swimming in my hurt
Dipped my toe in the ocean of emotion, errr
This isn't gonna work, I feel darker than my shadow
I wrote this prose so you know this is why I'm shallow
[Verse 2]
I've been down and I've been up
I found a diamond bruv
But you know what I'm like when I'm in love
I might just chuck the diamond just to rock with a pebble
And I won't lie to ya
The grass ain't greener
Just a little quieter
More time for me to get this moving though
And see more shit to go through alone
[Chorus]
I guess it's so true
We're shaped by the things we go through
That's why you only know the small percentage that I show you
You think I'm so dumb
But really I'm just so done
My head's numb
You've fed from my bread crumbs
Get going now
[Verse 3]
I drop them bread crumbs on the floor
Just in case I need to retreat to before
I'm like Hansel and Gretel in a pan made of metal
But I'm planning to get to the sands from the meadow
I've been burning up from all this turning up
[Bridge]
I've been drowning in my pain
I've been swimming in my hurt
Dipped my toe in the ocean of emotion, errr
This isn't gonna work, I feel darker than my shadow
I wrote this prose so you know this is why I'm shallow
[Chorus]
I guess it's so true
We're shaped by the things we go through
That's why you only know the small percentage that I show you
You think I'm so dumb
But really I'm just so done
My head's numb
You've fed from my bread crumbs
Get going now
