My Understandings

Of Mice And Men · The Flood [2011]

I don't mind it, I don't mind if you're overrated

or if you're staring at the edge of the world,

but keep in mind that I'm a sore eye, with blurry vision,

but I can see yeah, it has to be you love,

that I've been dreaming of, and if we climb this high

I swear we'll never die.



I don't mind it, I don't mind if you're overrated,

but keep in mind that I'm a sore eye, with blurry vision,

but I can see yeah, it has to be you love,

that I've been dreaming of, and if we climb this high

I swear we'll never die; I'll never die.
