Whatever Will Be

[Verse 1]
Sometimes I feel like I'm a bird with broken wings
At times I dread my now and envy where I've been
But that's when quiet wisdom takes control
At least I've got a story no one's told

[Chorus]
I've finally learned to say, "Whatever will be, will be"
I've learned to take the good, the bad and breathe (I couldn't breathe)
'Cause although we'd like to know what life's got planned
No one knows if shooting stars will land

[Verse 2]
These days, it feels naive to put your faith in hope
To imitate a child fallin' backwards on the snow
'Cause that's when fears will usually lead you blind
But now I try to under-analyze

[Chorus]
I've finally learned to say, "Whatever will be, will be"
I've learned to take the good, the bad and breathe (I couldn't breathe)
'Cause although we'd like to know what life's got planned
No one knows if shooting stars will land

[Bridge]
Is the rope I walk wearin' thin?
Is the life I love cavin' in?
Is the weight on your mind a heavy black bird caged inside?

[Chorus]
Say, "Whatever will be, will be"
Take the good, the bad, just breathe
'Cause although we'd like to know what life's got planned
No one knows if shooting stars will land
(I've finally learned to say) Whatever will be, will be
And I have learned to take the good, the bad and breathe (I couldn't breathe)
'Cause although we'd like to know what life's got planned
Things like that are never in your hand
No one knows if shooting stars will land
