Lay My Claim Lyrics

Is love an invention

Or something we just discovered

Do we fight hard for attention

Or do we fight for one another

Is love a blessing or a burden

I couldn’t say for certain

All I know is it keeps me up and keeps me going

In this life all I’ve tried is make people love me

But I’m dizzy now that I stopped growing up and they won’t

Sometimes you have to throw your ashes to the air above you

And watch where the wind takes life, on a plight to make a name

I’ll lay my claim

I’ll lay my claim

I’ll lay my claim

I’ll lay my claim

Man I’m bout to jump up off the ledge

Dealing with the existential dread

Who could want to mesh with all the mess that I am

Fixated on this four letter word

I’m afraid to know what I deserve

But it’s up to me to find the blessing in the curse

If you don’t have to

Why would you want to

If you don’t have to

Why would you want to

I’ll lay my claim

I’ll lay my claim

I’ll lay my claim

I’ll lay my claim

When the sun goes down on a blue sky, I’ll lay my, I’ll lay my

Bound to the idea that I’ll die satisfied, satisfied
