Lyrics

Nobody told me growing up
Would feel like slowly giving things up
Friends turn into names you barely say
Dreams get pushed somewhere along the way
I thought I'd wake up knowing what to do
Like everybody else already knew
But every answer I thought I found
Just turned into another question somehow
Maybe we're not meant to know
Maybe that's the only thing worth knowing
We spend our lives looking for a sign
While the whole damn world keeps going
And if the lights go out tonight
I don't wanna wish I had more time
I wanna know I was awake
For every mistake I chose to make
I miss the person I thought I'd be
But I don't hate the man in front of me
Maybe changing isn't losing who you were
Maybe it's admitting you were never sure
We keep tomorrow hanging over our heads
Like it's guaranteed to show up instead
While yesterday keeps taking what it can
And today disappears between our hands
Maybe we're not meant to know
Maybe that's the only thing worth knowing
We spend our lives looking for a sign
While the whole damn world keeps going
And if the lights go out tonight
I don't wanna wish I had more time
I wanna know I was awake
For every mistake I chose to make
What if there is no grand design?
No perfect answer waiting in the sky?
What if meaning isn't something that we find?
What if we make it every time we survive?
Maybe we're not meant to know
Maybe we're just supposed to live it
Take the good with what we lose
And stop pretending we can fix it
And if the lights go out tonight
I don't need everything to make sense
I just wanna know I was here
And I gave this life everything I had left
Nobody told me life was short
Nobody told me what it was for
Maybe I spent too long asking why
When I could've just been alive
