You’ve Already Won

[Verse 1]
Bagels in cardboard boxes, northern suburb street parking
Grocery that's vacant at 8am on a Monday morning
Hot coffee, heavy eyes, AirPods and open skies
Converse and creek trails and coming to realise
As I walk and tread and trample through the trees, mud on my ankles
There's no emotion along this path that I cannot handle
Woollen coats oversized, each thought I analyse
Cold to the point where you see it before you when you sigh

[Verse 2]
Dress-ups and dinner parties, backyards and sunburnt bodies
James Taylor vinyls and pot plants and putting off your studies
Cheese boards and blow-up pools, feminist articles
Boyfriends and tattoos and scеnted expensivе candles
Long roads and rugged coastlines, DNM's over a white wine
Sleep-ins and beach trips and losing myself in my mind
Bird watching, turning tide, tea towels and dishes dried
Siblings suppressing laughter, parents don't know why we try

[Chorus]
Breathe it in, soak it up
All it is, all at once
Ready, set, take the plunge
Being like a sponge
And breathe it in, soak it up
All it is, all at once
Ready, set, take it on
Treat it like it's gonna be gone

[Verse 3]
Front desks and boarding passes, wheels up, 12 hours 'til landing
Sunlight that cuts like a knife through the clouds into the cabin
"Bring your book to the park", pub feed before it's dark
Silk skirts and stories of co-workers' rude remarks
Downtown breakfast at a diner, "it's how you walk through the fire"
There ain't a stranger in sight that I don't somewhat admire
Museum self-guided tours, music is mine and it's yours
Whole to the point where you cannot imagine needing more

[Chorus]
Breathe it in, soak it up
All it is, all at once
Ready, set, take the plunge
Being like a sponge
And breathe it in, soak it up
All it is, all at once
Ready, set, take it on
Treat it like it's gonna be gone

[Verse 4]
Kitchen choreographed dances, sweet talk and second chances
Kiss right below your eyes, swear not to take this night for granted
Sing at the top of your lungs, dare to try everything once
It only takes looking around to know you've already won

[Chorus]
Breathe it in, soak it up
All it is, all at once
Ready, set, take the plunge
Being like a sponge
And breathe it in, soak it up
All it is, all at once
Ready, set, take it on
Treat it like it's gonna be gone
Treat it like it's gonna be gone
Treat it like it's gonna be gone
Treat it like it's gonna be gone
