Nothing Ever Happens Lyrics

Rachel Platten - Nothing Ever Happens

She dreams of where she's never been'

A story starts where it should end

She keeps a bible close

folds And the pages down she needs the most.

Her faded walls are closing in'

So in her head' she leaves again

They've painted ceilings blue and green'

And brilliant colors she's never seen

But nothing ever happens if you stay in your room

Nothing ever happens if you leave the party too soon

Never be a winner if you're not in the game

And nothing ever happens if you always play it safe

Make a little space

And get out of your own way

A ticket out sits on her shelf

And gathers dust upon itself

Cause chasing chance is for the brave

Maybe soon she'll feel that way

But nothing ever happens if you stay in your room

And nothing ever happens if you leave the party too soon

Nothing ever happens if you don't get hurt

And nothing ever happens if you never get dirty

Make a little space

And go on' get out' go on get out

Leave what you don't need

You're free' and the pieces will fall into place

You and you only' who can make a little space and

And get out of your own way

She sees the sunlight through the cracks'

It's only her who holds her back

And so she takes her deepest breath'

Shuts the door and walks down the steps

And nothing ever happens if you stay in your room

Nothing ever happens if you leave the party too soon

Never be a winner if you're not in the game

And nothing ever happens if you always play it safe

Make a little space

And get out of your own

Oh get out of your own way

Get out of your own way

Oh get out of your own way

Get out of your own way
