James Veck-Gilodi - England lyrics

There's a weight that's on my shoulders Empty space inside All the things our parents told us Never truly leave our minds All that tracks we form as children And the habits that we've built Only worsen as we get older, leave us unfulfilled All the time that I wasted Refusing to let you go From every place I've been to the state I'm in I needed to let you know, that you're not my home Would I still feel awkward sober Around people I don't know Would I still not swim in public and hide behind my clothes I guess the white skin that I'm covered in, and the country where I was born All the time I wasted Refusing to let you go From every place I've been to the state I'm in I needed to let you know Because my minds made up When I've had enough of the way that my face turns red I said my minds made up Yeah I've had enough, oh England get out of my head I think I'll move 5000 miles down south towards the sea 'Cause the world isn't all just a vampire, England just might be 'Cause it wears me out, drains the joy That I swear I had when I was a boy But maybe that wasn't me Just a memory, just a memory
