lyrics

People always get by
Even if the path they're walking
Is what's laid out in the sky
Messages interpreted
We can think we're directed one way
Then find out it wasn't meant

I'll take a day trip to my past life
Looking for answers
'cause I want to see
When I started living life in moments, not memories
Love and stability
Is what I've been waiting on
And it comes with the weather
Which I'll never understand

Waiting for the sun is a waste of time
'cause today's heroics are tomorrow's crimes
Afraid to see the writing on the walls we've made
'cause its not home if I hadn't wished I'd stayed
Waiting for the sun is a waste of time
'cause today's truth's lost in tomorrow's lies
Lost at sea
We only think about the past because its easy

The world thinks I'm ready
