Living Dangerously - Sondre Lerche

Five years have passed since our old friends all exclaimed

‘Why rush to waste it away?

Don’t hang you ambition and sense out to dry'

But I still know, just as I knew well back then

We had nothing to defend

Now all our friends are out mowing the lawn

I’m not trying to disrespect

But I don’t wanna build a house

This old place will do just fine

To settle for and settle down

Never really crossed my mind

Oh I’ll be living dangerously with you instead

I might have said ‘buddy you letting things slide

Passively biding your time

For something better to arrive

Only settle for what you’re assigned'

But I won’t quiz any uncomfortable q’s

Only ‘congrats' any ‘good for you’s

Now all our friend are in debt and expecting

I’m not trying to disrespect

But selfish as I know it sounds

I would hate to compromise

To settle for the solid ground

Never really crossed my mind

Oh I’ll be living dangerously with you instead

I’m not trying to disrespect

But I don’t wanna build a house

This old place will do for now

To settle for and settle down

Never really crossed my mind

Oh I’m not gonna build a house

I don’t really have the time

Oh I’ll be living dangerously with you instead
