Testo Hand Me Downs - Arkells

Testo della canzone Hand Me Downs (Arkells), tratta dall'album Rally Cry

You went through five high schools, before you were 17
I can only guess what
Those brown eyes have seen
If we're just a blank state
Mixed with a little bit of DNA
And those weekends visit when he'd show up late
When I feel helpless
I see you smiling back at me
Like every little thing is gonna be okay
Ya, you're a tough kid, way tougher than me
I'll put a bet on you any day
Oh, when your head gets dizzy and you can't get right
Oh, but you push on through, don't be denied
Shake off those ghosts in every corner of this town
From the clothes on your back, to the colour of your eyes
Ain't no shame in some hand me downs
(Oh-oh-oh)
Ain't no shame in some hand me downs
(Oh-oh-oh)
No, never made sense
But it's the only thing that you know
That resentment
Well it comes and goes
In your daddy's defence
Now he never really stood a change
You should see where he came from
And how his brothers ended up
We get all stuck, but babe
You've been acting reckless, to deal with the pain
I just hope you don't get carried away
You wear this necklace, from graduation day
You said, "I'll wear this chain, 'cause I'm breaking it"
Yeah, I'll wear this chain, 'cause I'm breaking it
(Oh) when your head gets dizzy and you can't get right
(Oh) but you push on through, don't be denied
Shake off those ghosts in every corner of this town
From the clothes on your back, to the colour of your eyes
Ain't no shame in some hand me downs
(Oh-oh-oh)
Ain't no shame in some hand me downs
(Oh-oh-oh)
First of the month, gets you stressed out
And moving trucks, bring you right back
Deep in the cut, there's a voice that's calling out
Saying, "It's out of reach, but I gotta keep chasing
It's out of reach, but I gotta keep chasing
It's out of reach, but I gotta keep chasing
It's out of reach, but I gotta keep chasing"
(Oh) when your head gets dizzy and you can't get right
(Oh) but ya push on through, don't be denied
Shake off those ghosts in every corner of this town
From the clothes on your back, to the colour of your eyes
From the clothes on your back, to the colour of your eyes
From the clothes on your back, to the colour of your eyes
Ain't no shame in some hand me downs
(Oh-oh-oh)
Ain't no shame in some hand me downs
(Oh-oh-oh)
Ain't no shame in some hand me downs
(Oh-oh-oh)
Ain't no shame in some hand me downs
(Oh-oh-oh)
Ain't no shame in some hand me downs
