Stella Donnelly – Medals Lyrics

 

Medals Lyrics by Stella Donnelly

 

You’ve got a lot of medals for someone who is losing
You’ve got a lot of trophies, they call it moral bruising
You’re wearing all your ribbons and yelling at the TV
You’re scaring all your housemates with your monologing

We could concede and let it go on
Places to be getting us through
Temporary peaceful approach
Everyone is waiting for you

You’re always in the doorway
Never in the moment
It’s like watching a movie next to a chain smoker
Why is it so paralyzing to see the one you love dance?
Are you holding their hand, or holding back each other?

We could concede and let it go on
Places to be getting us through
Temporary peaceful approach
Everyone is waiting for you

Telling lies, telling lies to yourself
