lyrics

If the sky still is the limit
It seems like it's falling to me
And just getting out of my bed now
Is some kind of small victory

And good days are wearing a new shirt
And remembering therapy
Walks through the park in mid-morning
With the sun peaking out of the trees

If only I'd taken
A moment to capture
The confidence I had before
Thought I'd figured out the world then
Threw the pieces in the air again
And now I've forgotten
Why I was so sure 'cause

Here I am tired again
And here I am covered with cynicism
And here I am my hope wearing thin
Though I've dragged it around through wherever I've been
And here I am at least twice my age
At the same time I swear I'm too young
For the next stage

If I have the whole world to grow in
The days seem to fly way too fast
Spent so long in this breaking news cyclone
That I don't remember who I am
And some days are pretty much write-offs
Where the best intentions are in vain
There's no concentration or feeling
Set to wait for tomorrow again

If only I'd taken
A moment to capture
The confidence I had before
Thought I'd figured out the world then
Threw the pieces in the air again
And now I've forgotten
Why I was so sure 'cause

Here I am tired again
And here I am covered with cynicism
And here I am my hope wearing thin
Though I've dragged it around through wherever I've been
And here I am at least twice my age
At the same time I swear I'm too young
For the next stage

I'll keep working through it
Not much I can do it's
Just some growing pains
I guess, anyway and
I don't have the answers
Though I wish I did
I'll find comfort in the people before me who lived
Through uncertain years
Facing the curtain years
Crying and learning years
Fixing, returning years the
Knowing nothing years
Desperate for loving years
Wishing for golden years
Hate getting older years

It's all been played out before
Over and over and over and over so

Won't you save a place for me
At the party
We promised to have one day when we weren't sad
I just hold on to that
I just hold on to that
I hold on

I, I hold on
I, I hold on
I, I hold on
I, I hold on
I, I hold on
I, I hold on
I, I hold on
I, I hold on
