Shell Songtext
von Jasper Sloan Yip

Maybe I′ll write you in the morning
If I wake up to find the time
I'll sit down with a pen and paper
Wrestle with the words between two lines
And I′ll say that I'm not sorry for a single thing that I did
And I'm not sorry that it′s over
Oh, I may miss the life that I left behind so bad
But I don′t miss you anymore

Oh, the wrench in my cogs
The thorn in my hand
My heart full of doubt
My mouth full of sand
Put your ear to my chest
The ocean's in sight
I′m more of a shell than I realize
It's true


I′m coming home soon
Don't know what′s coming next
Oh, I feel like such a stranger when I'm with my friends
But now I can be on my own without feeling all alone

Oh, and I mean what I say
When I say that I can change
So when you see me again
No, I won't be the same

I keep looking for stars at the bottom of a bottle
I don′t wanna stop but I know that I gotta
Monkey on my back, I′ve put my back in it
This room is on fire and I am still in it
I'll step out the door and burst into tears
The things that I love and the things that I fear
Well, I′m not scared of death but I am scared of life
And the thought of it all keeps me up every night

It's the wrench in my cogs
The thorn in my hand
My heart full of doubt
My mouth full of sand
Put your ear to my chest
The ocean′s in sight
I'm more of a shell than I realize


Put your ear to my chest
The ocean′s in sight
I'm more of a shell than I realize
Put your ear to my chest
The ocean's in sight
I′m more of a shell than I realize
It′s true
