lyrics

Must trust your instincts
Or you won’t get anywhere
Look for the silver lining,
And take your share.
Remain selfless in this selfish game Play the cards that you’re dealt,
Do it your way.
I don’t think I know where to go, waiting for my head to explode.
In due time with the right insight
When I’m in my prime, I’ll let you know.
Deep breaths, gotta take it slow.
My rib cage about to implode.
Cropped out, not a drop out
Can’ be stopped now, it’s my time to go.

Time to separate if you’ve never cared
Leave it all behind,
Won't get you anywhere.
Contrasting your emotions,
Patience, and keep your focus.
It’s not worth discontentment.
Believe in the everafter.

Time to make sacrifices
Or you won't get anywhere.
Your turn to supervise
And take take your share.
Chin up, there’s not such thing
As growing old.
Future’s a gleaming star,
Let the light enfold.

Time to separate if you’ve never cared
Leave it all behind,
Won't get you anywhere.
Contrasting your emotions,
Patience, and keep your focus.
It’s not worth discontentment.
Believe in the everafter.

Must trust your instincts
Or you won’t get anywhere
Look for the silver lining
