  • People are talking
    And I know why
    There ain't much living
    Before you die
    And it feels so criminal
    Keeping it all down to the minimal
    I pray for myself
    Because I don't ever want to be that way

    Oh no no
    Till the sugar's all gone and the plates are broken
    Oh no no
    I don't want to be pushed that way

    Rich ambitions
    I never did care
    To lose my soul
    Only just to get ahead

    And it feels so criminal
    Keeping it all down to the minimal
    I pray for myself
    Because I don't ever want to be that way

    Oh no no
    Till the sugar's all gone and the plates are broken
    Oh no no
    I don't want to be pushed that way
    Oh no no
    You know it's worth it sometimes when your eyes are soaking
    Oh no no
    I don't ever want to be that way

    It feels so sad
    When people waltz round the bases that they have
    Say a prayer for myself
    Don't want to be pushed down that way

    Oh no no
    Till the sugar's all gone and the plates are broken
    Oh no no
    I don't want to be pushed that way
    Oh no no
    You know it's worth it sometimes when your eyes are soaking
    Oh no no
    I don't ever want to be that way Lyrics licensed and provided by LyricFind
