These the lyrics to the song “Ready to Change” by one of the most underrated bands out there: Kodaline.
All their songs are beautifully crafted stories that speak to your heart and give you a feeling of hope. I hope more people will get to hear their music and watch their videos.
Shots rang out, but there’s no gun
Still, you hurt on everyone
In the dips of you, the sparks are good
But you’re not even trying, trying
You feel the knife in your gut
But you’re so scared of what you want
You bite your lip and hold your tongue
What are you hiding? Hiding
We got tired of your charms
And tired of your false alarms
You’re just a book that never turns its page
You can stand on the edge shouting out that you’re ready to change (ready to change)
You can say what you want
You won’t jump, you’re not ready to change, ready to change
Happy times, there’s been a few
A different me, a different you
Now you sell your soul for something new
But nobody’s buying (buying)
‘Cause we got tired of your charms
And tired of your false alarms
You’re just a book that never turns its page
You can stand on the edge shouting out that you’re ready to change (ready to change)
You can say what you want
You won’t jump, you’re not ready to change, ready to change
Travel is all about change and being ready for that change, as we are discovering on our journey. So yes, I am ready to change.
