What's The Big Idea

i really don't have that much to say

so i'll paint this smile back on my face

and let you wonder why i'm so happy all the time

i need to find myself some air

but this shit lingers everywhere

i try to hide

you say what's the big idea

well why can't you just walk away

and forget the things you say you need

stop taking life so seriously

it's the only way that i know to be

*chorus*-----------------------------------------------------------

i can't run away from what's inside

i can't wait it out hoping it passes me by

i've forgotten what it was

i wanted to leave behind

*chorus*-----------------------------------------------------------

take it slow

judge the weight

before i make the same mistakes

and let my mind fade

this ignorance replaces the pain

but i'm still losing too much sleep

for all these memories that i keep

to remind me why

i feel absent in my own life

*chorus*

but the pain still exists

after the memories die, the memories die

it's all up to me

cause i can't change

what it is i've seen

i have to take what i am given

because without it i am incomplete

this is my life and all the space between

*chorus*

but the pain still exists

after the memories die

i've forgotten what it was (3x)

i wanted to leave behind

i really don't have that much to say

so i'll paint this smile back on my face

and let you wonder why

i'm so happy all the time
