lyrics

We are real and that’s alright
We grow up around the best of our fault lines
But they’re shifting all of the time

And when you say we’re ticking along
You are so right, we’re like ticking time bombs
Just praying that nothing goes wrong

Yet we seldom see the warning signs do we?

’Cause it won’t take long for us to mess this up
And it won’t take long for us to give up
And it won’t be long before every vow is broken
No, it won’t take long at all

We’re tangled up like a ball of wool
All fears and dreams just waiting for the pull
The snag that ends it all

And we take pride in our monuments
Pictures of perfect that help us to forget
We’re just people trying our best

Yet we seldom see the warning signs do we?

’Cause it won’t take long for us to mess this up
And it won’t take long for us to give up
And it won’t be long before every vow is broken
No, it won’t take long at all
No, it won’t take long at all

We can’t keep doing this to ourselves, can we?
We should be more kind, live a little less violently
So when I’m next holding onto the shelf
I should be reminding myself

That it won’t take long for us to mess this up
And it won’t take long for us to give up
And it won’t be long before every vow is broken
No, it won’t take long at all
No, it won’t take long for us to mess this up
And it won’t take long for us to give up
And it won’t be long before every vow is broken
No, it won’t take long at all

Luke James Williams image

Luke James Williams England, UK

Light and dark, ugly and beautiful, happy and sad, fearful and brave, the music of singer songwriter Luke James Williams reflects the opposing forces and wonderful chaos of the world around us. Combining the raw power of PJ Harvey with the delicate sensitivity of Sufjan Stevens, Williams paints pictures with words and sings them in his own distinctly British voice. ... more
