It's all there underneath
Everything we'll ever need
You and I
Look around, you will see
Broken minds and shattered dreams
Wasted time
But I don't mind loosing sleep
Squeezing through the cracks between
Day and night

It's such a long shot
Everything that we've got
Just living on this rock
Surrounded by the sea
With our shoes off
Balancing on rooftops
You put your faith in preachers
I put my faith in me

Given time, we could've seen
All the things he could've been
If he'd tried
But he settled for the English dream
Lived in mediocrity
Stood in line
But that's not enough for me
I will kick and I will scream
Tell you why

It's such a long shot
Everything that we've got
Just living on this rock
Surrounded by the sea
With our shoes off
Balancing on rooftops
You put your faith in preachers
I put my faith in me

I don't wanna waste your time
I don't wanna waste your time, oh-oh

It's such a long shot
Everything that we've got
Just living on this rock
Surrounded by the sea
With our shoes off
Balancing on rooftops
You put your faith in preachers
I put my faith in me

It's such a long shot
Everything that we've got
Just living on this rock
Surrounded by the sea
With our shoes off
Balancing on rooftops
You put your faith in preachers
I put my faith in me
