Dark Days (Fat Freddy's Drop cover)

Learning to breathe again 
for the first time 
In so long now 
Learning to see again 
through my pride 
Learning to speak again 
from my heart 
Learning to be a friend 
for the first time 
for the first time 
in so long 
for so long (x7) 
Feel like I'm losing time 
when I worry 
'cos yesterday won't change 
Starting to free my mind 
from the shadow of doubt 
that keeps me in darkness 
testing the air outside 
my chamber 
into the danger 
pushing my limits high 
to the red line and over 
and why have i waited 
so long 
for so long (x6) 
oh 
why have I waited? 
why have I waited, yeah 
well it's hard to be happy 
in a world that's so cruel 
where the weak just get weaker 
where the powerful feud 
where the children go hungry 
while the soldiers stand by 
lay down your weapons 
take hold of your lives 
and when will we learn 
that it's hate that breeds hate 
only love is the cure 
don't leave it too late 
get up, and feel it 
the truth that won't wait 
if we choose to do nothing 
then we take all the blame
