lyrics

Every day’s the same
I chase another big idea, go to bed, wake up
And hang my head in shame
I could get used to feeling like this
Or maybe find a balance (Pull my head above the covers)
It’s been a choppy journey to fulfillment all because
I used to want to be the best at everything that I tried
Wore perfectionism as a mask, at times I was a massive ass
I guess it’s the beginning of the end

Is the meteor out to scorch you?
Have they happened to you now? (Oh they did? Who woulda thought..)
A battle in your head - speed up or slow down
And maybe they were right, some hearts get broken tonight
You might not be where I want but it's alright

You're alive!
You might not be where I want but I'm what you’re after tonight
I’m picking up where you left off and coming home

Hey! Is it real yet?
A lot left to go in this drive
Like the shit I have to learn through direct exposure
But as I get older I find
That deep down I just wanted to inspire not impress
See I walk in a daze, pull me out of this place
I don’t wanna feel broken, lost, or afraid
I just wanna be amazed by things that I made
Subtract 13 off my life if that’s what it takes

It's not that simple, nice try
You'll be back here in a week but it's in sight
That's life, don't you cry
You might not be where I want but it's alright

You're alive!
You might not be where I want but I’m what you’re after tonight
I’m picking up where you left off and coming home
You might not be where I want but I’m what you’re after tonight
I’m picking up where you left off and coming home
