Tom Grennan Shadowboxing

Tekst piosenki

[Chorus]
Every day, I’m working, working, working on me
Constantly, I’m holding, holding, holding the beast down
Thought it would be easy, easy, easy to leave
But ah, hell, I’m shadowboxing myself

[Verse 1]
I’m paranoid, I’m paralysed
I’m half-alive behind the eye
I’m tipsy, tipping on razor edge
Don’t let the lines inside my head
My mother told me, „Let it go
You’ve done enough, just let it go”
But every night, I fantasise
Of kissing it just one more time (Oh, oh)

[Pre-Chorus]
Painted nails and late-night sales
Girls and boys all inhale
Baby, touch me, let’s get ugly
I don’t think I’m ready to fall

[Chorus]
Every day, I’m working, working, working on me
Constantly, I’m holding, holding, holding the beast down
Thought it would be easy, easy, easy to leave
But ah, hell, I’m shadowboxing myself
Every day, I’m working, working, working on me
I’m over here just crying, crying, crying the sheets down
Thought it would be easy, easy, easy to leave
But ah, hell, I’m shadowboxing myself

[Verse 2]
I’ve been dancing, but I can’t dance
I’m in fashion, monkey on my back
Every second is a test and I’ll take it
It’s a pity, never been an academic

[Pre-Chorus]
Painted nails and late-night sales
Girls and boys all inhale
Baby, touch me, let’s get ugly
I don’t think I’m ready to fall

[Chorus]
Every day, I’m working, working, working on me
Constantly, I’m holding, holding, holding the beast down
Thought it would be easy, easy, easy to leave
But ah, hell, I’m shadowboxing myself
Every day, I’m working, working, working on me
I’m over here just crying, crying, crying the sheets down
Thought it would be easy, easy, easy to leave
But ah, hell, I’m shadowboxing myself

[Outro]
Ahh
(Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh)
Monkey on my back
(Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh) Oh
Bad for my health
(Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh)
Ah, hell, I’m shadowboxing myself
Ahh
(Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh)
Monkey on my back
(Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh) Oh
Not good for my health
(Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh, ooh)
Ah, hell, I’m shadowboxing myself
