Licensed courtesy of Accent Records LYRICS Seventeen seconds and I’m over it Ready for the disconnect Putting on a brave face Trying not to listen to the voices in the back of my head (But it’s alright now) It’s a distant memory baby (It’s alright now) You know you should just let it go But some feelings have a habit of persisting even though you wouldn’t let it show Wearing me out (All this) Hanging around (It just starts) Getting me down (’till I’m just) Looking for an easy way out Braindead from boredom I’m led to distraction Scratching the surface of life Nothing really happens But it’s easy to keep busy When you tell yourself you’re traveling right (But it’s alright now) Was it really worth it baby?
