letra de rules - office culture

[verse 1]
i spend the day filling an empty frame
with bits of things i thought that i wanted
the morning dries like paint and chips away
i laugh, okay, you seem like you bought it

[chorus]
i though there were all these reasons
why i should stick the course
and follow my safest feelings
but i rewind all the tapes
rewrite the lines i screwed up
i didn’t know there were rules to talking tough

[verse 2]
back in those days, you’d knock the whole room flat
i’d hear you soar up into the nosebleeds
all those years, that’s what i’d always sat
and time was all that hiding bought me

[chorus]
and i know that you had your reasons
and they were good ones, too
so good i could taste the feeling
but still nothing gets past me
’cause no one treads soft enough
i didn’t think there were rules to talking tough
[bridge]
and they say
“no one knows, no one knows
no one knows you
no one knows you when you’re down and out”
when i get up above it
i’ll find another story i can write myself into
and drift into a new life”

[break]
ah-ah-ah
ah-ah-ah
ah-ah-ah
ah-ah-ah

[verse 3]
we let the cold years slowly slither by
all our fears were out of the question
the lakes dried up, the forest petrified
we lost our grip, we couldn’t feel the tension

[chorus]
and i thought that i had my reasons
but they were excuses, too
and i was too quick to appease them
if a good thing drifts towards me
if i can make room enough
i’ll forget there were rules to talking tough
[bridge]
and they say
“no one knows, no one knows
no ones knows you
no one knows you when you’re down and out”
when i get up above it
i’ll find another story i can write myself into
and drift into a new life

[break]
ah-ah-ah
ah-ah-ah
ah-ah-ah
ah-ah-ah
ah-ah-ah
ah-ah-ah
ah-ah-ah
ah-ah-ah

[chorus]
and i’m sure we all have our reasons
to hold these big parades for all our small achievements
but we’re the ones for the job, proud to take the fall
maybe there were never rules to this at all
