I Will Never Settle

This is not the song I wanted to write for you This is not the way I wanted to make you feel The truth is so unkind I can't stop the way that it sounds in your mind It's loud and it's distorted The longer you avoid it Too much to settle So I hide in my golden cage Silence is starving Humble pie on a paper plate Going in circles And my pride is the piece I hold I will never settle 'Cause to settle would crush our souls Too much to settle Silence is starving I will never settle I will never settle Going in circles Silence is starving I will never settle I will never settle Caught a glimpse of a normal life Terrified by the sight We belong to another time Dropping vanishing names we knew But if they don't care about it Do you still care about it? Too much to settle Silence is starving I will never settle I will never settle (Too much to settle) So I hide in my golden cage (Silence is starving) Humble pie on a paper plate (Going in circles) And my pride is the piece I hold (I will never settle) 'Cause to settle would crush our souls To settle would crush our souls We will never settle It would crush our souls, oh, oh We will never settle It would crush our souls, oh, oh (We will never settle) (It would crush our souls, oh, oh) (We will never settle) (It would crush our souls, oh, oh) --- I Will Never Settle - Metric
