[Verse 1]
Tell me how you still cut to my core with one sentence
After all these years
What's the message, do I give up on giving in?
Or throw the towel in altogether?
[Chorus]
I can't keep on like this
I'm sure I won't last long like this
I'm sure I can't go on like this
I'm sure I can't keep on
Living in the shadows of such beautiful people
[Verse 2]
I've never been so inspired as when we were together, babe
Don't take that to mean I miss you
I don't want you in any kinda way, we all grow, we all change
Some more slow than others
[Chorus]
But I can't keep on like this
I'm sure I won't last long like this
I'm sure I can't go on like this, yeah
I'm sure I can't keep on
Living in the shadows of such beautiful people
[Bridge]
Insatiable, unsociable, incapable at compromising
These are things my head says I am
Insatiable, unsociable, incapable at compromising
These are things my head says I am
[Verse 3]
New love hasn't brought me peace or set my soul at ease, babe
I met a good man with a brave heart
[Chorus]
I can't keep on like this
I'm sure I won't last long like this
I'm sure I can't go on like this
I'm sure I can't keep on
Living in the shadows of such beautiful, beautiful people
I can't keep on like this
And I'm sure I won't last long like this
I'm sure I can't go on like this, yeah
I'm sure I can't keep on
Living in the shadows of such beautiful people
