Autonomy

You can always tell 'cause you know me well
When my pupil goes wide, I'm under cast and spell
I paint a picture for miles and hang it on the wall
So if my memory fades, I still can recall

Oh a sharp turn can change everything
And energy flows in every direction
And some days, I wish I had some white-out
And I find there's never enough time
Energy flows in every direction
And some day I hope to figure it out
Too busy lookin' forward to be in the now

I try to slow down the pace, but I don't know how
Sittin' idle for hours, [?] in the day
Consumed by my thoughts of you in another place

Oh a sharp turn can change everything
And energy flows in every direction
And some days, I wish I had some white-out
Then I find there's never enough time
Energy flows in every direction
And some day I hope to figure it out
Too busy lookin' forward to be in the now

Someday I'd like to play a part in my life
I've waited to start
I bet I could live it well
If I take deep breaths and exhale
So little time, what am I to do?
I want my cake and I want to taste it too
Is that really so much to ask for?

You got your head up into the clouds
You want to live in glorious autonomy
Oh, that's what it really comes down to
And I got my head up into the clouds
I want to live in glorious autonomy
Oh, that's what it really comes down to

Someday I'd like to play a part in my life
I've waited to start
I'll bet I could live it well
If I take deep breaths and exhale
So little time, what am I to do?
I want my cake and I want to taste it too
Is that really so much to ask for?
