Imagine Televising Conflict
[Verse 1]
I can’t imagine doing such things
When you see conflict, get in the ring
Stop whatever is going on there
Should it continue, people will be scared
You never really have fights that are fair
Before that though, they might get in your hair
Don’t just stop, stand and then sing
Put in some work, only a bit
Whatever something like that happens, stay strong
Make sure that you’re never in the wrong
Always get down there and don’t be long
"Don’t be long", say that to the last song
Years ago I used to take the school bus
Never really did I make that much of a fuss
Always breaking in, getting through crust
Covering thoughts up, don’t let them rust
Continue with struggles, I had been you
Until I got up and tied my shoes
Now nothing ever gets them loose
See trails from a plane, that is "The OOZ"
Walk in the room and flick on the lights
Never have fights ‘cause fights are not right
Me in a fight, that chance is so slight
I’m in the college so I’m sort of on sight
Write on the page, no doubts on the face
Moving through life so fast, I’m in a race
Going my own way with no trace
Exploring the city with grace
Trust you to think the world’s so embraced
It’s more like the world’s tied up with a lace
Get on the route and you'll never be late
It is your fate if you’re late to the place
[Chorus]
Moving through life like how I move through the night
If I’m this sure, you then cannot bite
‘Cause I’m here and I don’t have a type
Actually, now that I think, I might
But whose job is it to correct me here
When I am present and you’re nowhere near
You’re not even here and you’re nowhere fast
Be glad when you see the conflict blast
[Verse 2]
Comparing everyone to car parks ‘cause we all have flaws
And no-one’s safe
When you’re moving through life with mates
Remember who got you there in the first place
‘Cause you’ll never finish first if you don’t look back
And see who’s behind you
Completing work and getting up-to-date is a must
Let me remind you
No-one’s moving through perfectly
‘Cause everything’s a bit botched like surgery
But then there’s me sat here thinking
I wish I had something to come and complete me
But do I really need that though?
Let’s think, am I drowning in sorrow?
I don’t think I am so that’s a good start
If you work hard then you’ll never finish last
It’s perfect if you always win
You may think that but here is the thing
You’ll never always win but you’ll cling
Like a young don getting onto a swing
I’m breaking open all of the locks
Even a lock that you put on a box
Yes I know that’s a lot of locks
But think about this, everybody’s got lots
Lots of thoughts in a chest of drawers
There’s so many thoughts, I’ll need more
Look at the life that I will draw
Everyone’s goal is to not be poor
Now I think that is a bit much
When people say school is torture
Think about this and listen to me
It’s not torture but there’s a bit of misery (only a bit)
[Chorus]
Moving through life like how I move through the night
If I’m this sure, you then cannot bite
‘Cause I’m here and I don’t have a type
Actually, now that I think, I might
But whose job is it to correct me here
When I am present and you’re nowhere near?
You’re not even here and you’re nowhere fast
Be glad when you see the conflict blast
[Refrain]
Such a waste of time
Making the things right
Such a waste of time
Making the things right
Such a waste of time (time)
Making the things right (right)
Such a waste of time (time)
Making the things right (left)
[Chorus] (x2)
Moving through life like how I move through the night
If I’m this sure, you then cannot bite
‘Cause I’m here and I don’t have a type
Actually, now that I think, I might
But whose job is it to correct me here
When I am present and you’re nowhere near?
You’re not even here and you’re nowhere fast
Be glad when you see the conflict blast
[Outro]
So that’s it
You’ve reached the end
And remember what I’ve said
Being a guide to life of sorts
For all your issues
Nah, not really
