lyrics

I like to think I’ve got the whole world figured out
The thought lasts a second or two
Then I remember even doubt hangs around to creep in my dreams

Six Novembers in a row this fall
I pick apart the things that I do
But right before I end up swallowed by it all
I say to myself

So life- it’s not like you had planned
You’re probably not the only one.
But it seems like the craziest demand
To wish it to be nearly done
So take all the stumbles and the stains
And thank them for their time
Cause they make the good stuff feel divine

I might go wading in a pool of ‘what if’
The water’s warm- I dive straight in
And touch the bottom with my hands for a bit
and hold my breath

It takes a while to feel my lungs give a tug-
And I don’t like to swim
So it’s back up beyond the surface again-
I take in all the air, and say,

Only when the odds are against you
And clawing away your pride
Do you take a glance at the song and dance
You’ve been playing all this time

I write the words down but they don’t sink in
Stay strong, you’re doing alright
The words repeating till my head’s in spin
It all takes time
