lyrics

I used to think life was all in my mind
Cut down and rebuilt time after time
Life like's that, oh, life's like that
Life's not that, no, life's not that

And the ads say the love that you need
Can be found on the endcap that says "As Seen on TV"
Just ride it out, oh, just write it out
I won't fight now, I won't fight now

And I'm wasting my time worrying I'm wasting my time
rattling around in my head
So I end up living like I'm already dead
cuz

CHORUS
There's always something in the way
and there's always more I wish I could say
if you're ready to fly
I'm ready to try

What made you think life stops just for you?
The same predicament is shared by all of us too
We're all here now waiting for you
Let it go now, oh, let let go now

And my heart keep saying stop medicating
with regret and singing the blues
And start living like there's something to lose
cuz

CHORUS
CHORUS 2
And there's oh so much we could make
if I could learn to be found, but I'm afraid to look down
So I'm letting go
Thoughts of me just disappear
I'm alive because you're here
