lyrics

I'm sick and tired of promises
The contradictions I make to myself
I think to me that it’ll be different this time
But it’s a lie, you’re nowhere near the prize…
Knock on my door
The Moment steps in
He sings to me, “You're not looking within.”
“You're stuck up here, where worry defines every action”
(And everyday is another wake up call)
That's only reason to try

So just drive, you’ve got all this time
To be alive
To find the meaning inside
Oh, life is only half the prize
Medium aside
Don’t wanna die without knowing

I must be showing a feeling to make it happen
Thoughts aren't reality, you learned this the hard way

How do you feel? (Like the world is over?)
Have you been freed? (Are you finding closure?)
You're stuck with me fading as you get older (Are you free, are you free?)
That's fine
That’s the present defined
You'll grow to like it with time

So just drive, you’ve got all this time
To be alive
To find the meaning inside, oh
So just drive, you’ve got all this time
To be alive
To find the meaning inside
Oh, life is only half the prize
Medium aside
Don’t wanna die without knowing

I must be showing a feeling to make it happen
Thoughts aren't reality, you learned this the hard way
I must be showing a feeling to make it happen
Thoughts aren't reality, you learned this the hard way

I should be on my way
But something’s making me stay
I should be on my way
But something’s making me stay
Somebody tell me it’ll be okay
Somebody tell me it’ll be okay
Somebody tell me it’ll be okay
(Something’s gotta change)
Somebody tell me it’ll be okay
Somebody tell me it’ll be okay
You’re gonna be okay…
