SPACE TO GROW

I fill my time and know there's not much of it
And I decide what's enough
I'll keep it up until there's no more quiet
And realize nothing got done

I have a tendency to want
Everything right but all at once
At the cost of cutting corners for the worse

Sometimes I wanna sit in silence
Like I never could
When I went driving
I never understood
Why anybody would sit there alone
Instead of drowning in the stereo
My god, it seems there should
Be someone else in charge of
Making sense of the unknown
I can hardly turn down the radio
But I'm learning to love the space to grow
The space to grow
The space to grow

I'm alive and know that's not promised
But I've decided, that's enough
I'll grip it tight and keep it honest
And lay it out in the sun

I have a tendency to want
Everything right but all at once
At the cost of cutting corners for the worse

Sometimes I wanna sit in silence
Like I never could
When I went driving
I never understood
Why anybody would sit there alone
Instead of drowning in the stereo
My god, it seems there should
Be someone else in charge of
Making sense of the unknown
I can hardly turn down the radio
But I'm learning to love the space to grow
The space to grow
The space to grow

I'll say it out loud
Embers in my mouth
Burn at their way out
Cuz they have to

I'll say it out loud
Done living without
Peace on the comedown
Finds me brand new
