Ready To Settle Lyrics – High Fidelity Cast

Ready To Settle Text

---

Grabbed the Moon,
Full of Hope,
Fell to Earth,
Without Rope,
Heart is heavy as a stone.

Been Betrayed
Been Abused
Spirits flayed
Ego Bruised
Everybody dies alone
I always knew before he flew he was too good for me
Now I'm here with you, How more different could you be?

You're just like me
Alone and sad
And in this light
You don't look so bad
I've had the best
Now I need a rest
Just someone who'll do
And I'm Ready to Settle for You

It's feeling like
A cancer bruise
Feel the rot between my toes
Why take another breathe?
For now I see
That all life brings
Is a string of disappointing things
And in the end cold death
We're both aware this love we share can't ever fill the room
And so we talk too loud to drown out the desperate gloom

My heart is dead (Heart is dead)
A hollowed bone (Hollowed bone)
I'm filled with dread
I'll end up alone
I'm moving my stuff
Act like it's enough
I'm past 22 (past 22)
And I'm Ready to Settle for you

See the happy people laughing
They're all deaf and blind (blind and deaf)
Why should we go on searching
For somehting we won't find (There's no hope)
Why should we pretend we're happy too (You know we're not)
I'd rather just stay home and sulk with you

You're just like me
Alone and sad
And in the dark
You don't look so bad
It's nice to know
That you'll never go

Cause if not me than who? (If not me than who)
And I'm Ready to Settle for You (Ready to Settle for You)
Ready to Settle for You (Ready to Settle for You)
Ready to Settle for You
