The Smith Street Band Bigger Than Us Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Did you ever stop to think that maybe we were right?
That these antiquated ventures had finally run out of time
And maybe with a little hope and a dash of self-esteem
We can start something that our little world has never seen
Because complaining isn't changing
And knowledge, it means nothing
If you use it to complain about how nothing changes

[Chorus]
Let's start something bigger than us
You can do more than you were ever taught

[Verse 2]
So today I won't get old
Just spend some time alone, talk to friends who listen
'Cause last night we tried something and it worked
Beat anything I ever bought, sold or rehearsed
And when I tell you all I love you, fuck, I couldn't mean it more
'Cause you know that I'd be dead now if it wasn't for these chords

[Chorus]
Let's start something bigger than us
You can do more than you were ever taught

[Bridge]
There are more open doors now than there have ever been
So let 'em close and jump out the window with me
Worst case scenario, we land hand in hand on the street
But imagine if we flew, how beautiful we'd let that be?
And there are more open doors now than there have ever been
So let 'em close and jump out the window with me
Worst case scenario, we land hand in hand on the street
But imagine if we flew, how beautiful we'd let that be?

[Chorus]
And let's start something bigger than us
Let's start something bigger than
You can do more than you were ever taught
Let's start something bigger than us
Bigger than us, bigger than us
Bigger than u-u-u-u-u-u-us, bigger than us
