Junip – Suddenly Lyrics

Rock

Wherever you look,
It's always the same,
So many people,
And the same game.

I didn't imagine,
We would end up here,
Now that it's fading,
And I feel so clear.

Wherever you look,
It offers the same,
So many people,
Living the same way.

I didn't imagine,
We would end up here,
When our petals have fallen,
And I feel so clear.

If it's alright with you,
Then it's alright with me,
And I feel so clear.

Wherever you look,
It offers the same,
So many people,
Playing the same game,

I didn't imagine,
We would end up here,
When our petals have fallen,
And I feel so clear.

If it's alright with you,
Then it's alright with me,
And I feel so clear.
