mind over matter - don't you blame me lyrics

[verse 1: smiles again]
17, with my license
we thought “hey, we might as well try it”
if i act like i’m not fazed to the guy out the front of the pub
then he might buy it
then he bought it, awesome
jack and c0ke we ordered for of them
excitement rushed through our veins as our brains then
couldn’t believe what they were pouring for us
imagine that
yeah
two kids in a world that they did not know
but it did not show
that there put me in lift off mode
same mind set when the chips got low
what i’m saying is to live on hope
when there ain’t none there and you cannot cope
life is…
crazy
how many hurricanes, floods, deaths, and festival line-ups
have you heard about lately?
trust me it’s happening right now, a lad on his night out
someone somewhere is smacking his lights out
cop car sirens are flashing their lights round
meanwhile in the wait for the racket to pipe down
my ex girl sent me a text to see
we all know how ex’s be
but she don’t get a text from me
cos that’d make my new girl an ex to be
we all on the chase of that ecstasy
but no ex in me you can check my t–th
most the time we get cramped legs and feet
rarely do we ever get the exit seat
and that’s a metaphor for rent and b
i.l.l.s. and expenses we
go and happen encounter each and every week
so i think back to when i was 17, can you blame me

[hook]
don’t you blame me
for what i do not know
what i have not grown in to be
i said don’t you blame me
those tears in your eyes
are making it harder to see
i said don’t you blame me

[verse 2: smiles again]
24, on a night out
i was up late like a night owl
then the cops went and did a walk through
and they told me to get right out right now
it was late
so i told him i thought that’s a great idea
then i skulled my drink and i put the gl-ss down
in between his two boots when i finished my beer
and it p-ssed him off major
i’m talking major
now i’m in the corner of the lift arm bended up my back
like he was trying to break it
spent a night locked up
n’ got out in the morning
with a court date then i walked strait
out gathered up my pennies and i went and got a lawyer
told her i was wasted sure
smart -ss but i didn’t break the law
n’ i can prove it with the video tapes for sure
but when we got there the video tapes were gone
he supplied his report lied through it all
deleted footage then denied it of co-rs-
then told me to plead guilty or else he’d have more
charges added if i decided to not
black mail, that failed
man i proved it all
then they went and dropped all charges 10 minutes
before the hearing they knew they would lose in court
it was one for the ages
but my effort wasn’t wasted
cos they paid for more than my trip to vegas
with 15 thousand in compensation all because they blamed me

[hook]

[bridge]
we are
we are the ones who feel this
and i’m
scared they won’t think i’m fearless
tried to paint me a halo
i couldn’t quite get the colours right
where the h-ll did the day go?
spent my time chasing b-tterflies
i’ll live till a hundred
and have every answer for every question
they ever thought of but for now
the beauty’s in trying to work it out
