Where did you learn how To worry like that With your feet in the water And the sun on your back And where did you learn how To hate your own skin I could tell you a thousand times But your still not convinced So I'll say it again I'll say it again I'll say it again Until it sinks in I wouldn't change a thing Not in my wildest dream No I wouldn't change a thing Because all that I need is right here I wouldn't change a thing Not in my wildest dream No I wouldn't change a thing Because all that I need is right here with me A day at the lake with The sun in your hair Where does your mind go When you sit and you stare At dancing reflections That play on your knees I can see it in your eyes That you still don't believe I wouldn't change a thing Not in my wildest dream No I wouldn't change a thing Because all that I need is right here I wouldn't change a thing Not in my wildest dream No I wouldn't change a thing Because all that I need is right here with me

On Hold 03:33
One day at a time Everything piles up in your mind And I don't know how to describe This stage that we're in Stuck in between The places we've seen in our dreams And places we're still wandering And can't comprehend It feels like we're waiting Waiting forever Looking for answers That we already know It feels like we're waiting Waiting forever Letting the moment Get stuck on hold One day at a time Wishing we could skip the line And finally get on the ride to know what it's like Feeling the wait Grinding all the gears in my brain But maybe we should be ok With "all in good time" It feels like we're waiting Waiting forever Looking for answers That we already know It feels like we're waiting Waiting forever Letting the moment Get stuck on hold It feels like we're waiting Waiting forever Letting the moment Get stuck on hold

I'm So Tired 03:57
I'm so tired of trying to pull myself together again And every time I'm getting close I start to second guess I don't wanna be stuck like this I'm losing my mind Waiting inside In the wettest July I've ever seen Every day feels the same As the sound of the rain Drowns out any thought that comes to me But I want to make sense Of the time that I've spent I'm so tired of trying to pull myself together again And every time I'm getting close I start to second guess myself I'm so tired of trying to pull myself together again (I'm so tired of trying so hard) And every time I'm getting close I start to second guess I don't wanna be stuck like this I'm wandering around Trying to find how To get out of the fog surrounding me Maybe I could start new What else can I do? I'm tired of trying the same old thing But I want to make sense Of the time that I spend I'm so tired of trying to pull myself together again (I'm so tired of trying so hard) And every time I'm getting close I start to second guess myself (Even when I've come so far) I'm so tired of trying to pull myself together again And every time I'm getting close I start to second guess I don't wanna be stuck like this

Sleepwalking 03:28
Hanging out on the front porch Watching the neighbors fight Walking out of my front door Just to say that I went outside Staying in on a Friday Wondering where the days all went Waking up on a Sunday Not ready to do this all again And just pretend I'm living life Like I meant I don't want to fall asleep I don't wanna live my life like that In front of a glowing screen Living my whole life second hand Listening to a new show Cause I can't let the silence in Learning something I don't know And probably will never need to know again I can't pretend I'm living life Like I meant I don't want to fall asleep I don't wanna live my life like that In front of a glowing screen Living my whole life second hand I don't want to fall asleep I don't wanna live my life like that Wandering aimlessly Watching the time slip through my hands

Walk With Me 03:38
Can't catch a break Each step I take The farther it seems The sun in my eyes The harder I try The less I can see where this leads I'm looking around And figuring out There's nothing to do But keep moving on While the current is strong And try to get through Walk with me Through this mess Nothing here Is making any sense Just walk with me Please don't leave You don't need To say anything At all I'm out of my mind I'm feeling just fine I don't really know I'm back here again And I can't pretend I know where to go Walk with me Through this mess Nothing here Is making any sense Just walk with me Please don't leave You don't need To say anything At all I don't want to fake it I don't want to play The victim, you know I don't want to hide it Cause I can't deny I'm feeling so low Walk with me Through this mess Nothing here Is making any sense Just walk with me Please don't leave You don't need To say anything

I wonder what you're doing now I wonder if you ever made it work somehow It's hard to hold on to a dream And harder to watch it fall apart at the seams again I wish you could travel in time See yourself in the larger design 'Cause at just the right time You'll see it will fall in line And at just the right time You'll know it will be alright In time I wonder if you know what you want I wonder if you're still feeling just as lost It's hard to know when you've arrived And harder to finally be satisfied I wish you could travel in time See yourself in the larger design I wish I could hear what you'd say Looking back at the progress you've made Cause at just the right time You'll see it will fall in line And at just the right time You'll know it will be alright And at just the right time You'll see it will fall in line And at just the right time You'll know it was by design All along

Stars reflect on the lake I'm somewhere floating off into space Cold as the night comes in I feel you're nearer than you've ever been I will wait Through the night Until I know I'm through this fight I will wait Through the night Until scars heal Until I find You're still there The surface holds the evening mist I dip my hands into the dark abyss To feel the calm, reflected sky And know you're with me through this By my side I will wait Through the night Until I know I'm through this fight I will wait Through the night Until scars heal Until I find You're still there

Simple Life 03:36
We don't need to travel far I'm fine just to stay in the backyard Watching the clouds roll by Taking our time, wherever we are We're always looking out for something And never really satisfied We're always looking out the window And never feeling more alive But All I want Is to love you like There's nothing else On my mind All I want Is to hold you like There's nothing else I need besides A simple life A simple life We don't need to chase the day I just want to feel the sun on my skin We don't need a grand escape I just want to love the moment I'm in We're always looking out for something And never really satisfied We're always looking out the window And never feeling more alive But All I want Is to love you like There's nothing else On my mind All I want Is to hold you like There's nothing else I need besides A simple life A simple life

Imposter 03:15
Running circles in my head In the morning when I can't get out of bed Wondering if I'm of touch Waiting for you to go on and call my bluff Maybe I'm stuck Or maybe I just push my luck And now I can't stop waiting for the shoe to drop Over my head, underwater Maybe I am in too deep Look in my eyes tell me honest Am I chasing daydreams I can't reach Now I feel the shadow creep In the evening, when I try to go to sleep Drowning in the reasons why I'll never get ahead, no matter how I try Maybe I'm naive With no surprises up my sleeve And the harder I try The more I feel I can't get right Over my head, underwater Maybe I am in too deep Look in my eyes, tell me honest Am I chasing daydreams I can't reach Over my head, underwater Maybe I am in too deep Look in my eyes tell me honest Am I chasing daydreams I can't reach

Worth 03:20
When will it be enough? It's always what you're thinking of What will it take to see That you don't have to prove your worth to me? Here it comes, once again The feeling that you're falling behind And it takes all your time Looking for a mountain to climb When will it be enough? It's always what you're thinking of What will it take to see That you don't have to prove your worth to me? If you find it, what will you do? Will you live on the mountain you've made? Cause it follows, wherever you go The same feeling that you can't shake When will it be enough? It's always what you're thinking of What will it take to see That you don't have to prove your worth to me? Quit the bitter self-talk Won't you listen to yourself? You're gonna go insane If you keep trying to measure up When will it be enough? It's always what you're thinking of What will it take to see That you don't have to prove your worth to me?

I'm feeling the same Not a day older in my head Waiting for a change Another year older still a kid Don't know what I want Don't know what I'll be 5 years from now But I know what I'm not And I know that I've come this far somehow All my life All my life I couldn't sit still if I tried I'd tell myself I'd tell myself I wanted to be somewhere else But all this time All this time I thought I'd get some kind of sign That now I'd know Now I'd know But I'm still making it up as go Wherever I go Maybe it's about time To put all these old ideas to rest Make a different design That doesn't lean on safer bets All my life All my life I couldn't sit still if I tried I'd tell myself I'd tell myself I wanted to be somewhere else But all this time All this time I thought I'd get some kind of sign That now I'd know Now I'd know But I'm still making it up as go Wherever I go
