Life For Rent

I haven't ever really found a place that I call home
I never stick around quite long enough to make it
I apologise that once again I'm not in love
but it's not as if I mind that your heart ain't exactly breaking
it's just a thought, only a thought

but if my life is for rent and I don't learn to buy
well I deserve nothing more than I get
cos nothing I have is truly mine

I've always thought that I would love to live by the sea
to travel the world alone and live more simply
I have no idea what's happened to that dream
cos there's really nothing left here to stop me
it's just a thought, only a thought

but if my life is for rent and I don't learn to buy
well I deserve nothing more than I get
cos nothing I have is truly mine

while my heart is a shield and I won't let it down
while I am so afraid to fail so I won't even try
well how can I say I'm alive

but if my life is for rent and I don't learn to buy
well I deserve nothing more than I get
cos nothing I have is truly mine
