What I've Been Doing Lately Is Kickboxing Lyrics

If we always lived in summer, then we'd never miss the heat
And we could trade our dreaming hearts for a lie we don't believe
Like when you jump to one conclusion
There's only one way to do it right
Well, I don't really know
I can't figure it all out tonight
I've got a fist full of aspirations I can use
To find my way through what's holding me back

You know you're never stuck in one place
And only you can free yourself
Your pen alone rewrites the story that you've only begun to tell

I've spending time following dreams
Down the backstreets into the street
When the oncoming force of real life was thrust upon me
If we're all just swimming or treading
Then we're writhing or sinking
I'd rather choose the one that keeps me moving

You know you're never stuck in one place And only you can free yourself
Your pen alone rewrites the story that you've only begun to tell

I've been thrown up against the ropes, but I won't give up hope
I won't give in
I'll open my arms to failure
Because I know I can always get back up again
I saw this coming from a mile away
But I still let the punches hit me
I didn't fight this long just to proceed
With what everyone else expects of me

You know you're never stuck in one place
And only you can free yourself
The things that hold you down are held above your head
And you must smash them to the ground
Bite the hand that feeds and walk away and never turn around
When you reach your chosen coast, make sure you write a letter home
That says, "I'm not going to drown."
