SPACE TO GROW

I fill my time and know there's not much of it

And I decide what's enough

I'll keep it up until there's no more quiet

And realize nothing got done

I have a tendency to want

Everything right but all at once

At the cost of cutting corners for the worse

Sometimes I wanna sit in silence

Like I never could

When I went driving

I never understood

Why anybody would sit there alone

Instead of drowning in the stereo

My god, it seems there should

Be someone else in charge of

Making sense of the unknown

I can hardly turn down the radio

But I'm learning to love the space to grow

The space to grow

The space to grow

I'm alive and know that's not promised

But I've decided, that's enough

I'll grip it tight and keep it honest

And lay it out in the sun

I have a tendency to want

Everything right but all at once

At the cost of cutting corners for the worse

Sometimes I wanna sit in silence

Like I never could

When I went driving

I never understood

Why anybody would sit there alone

Instead of drowning in the stereo

My god, it seems there should

Be someone else in charge of

Making sense of the unknown

I can hardly turn down the radio

But I'm learning to love the space to grow

The space to grow

The space to grow

I'll say it out loud

Embers in my mouth

Burn at their way out

Cuz they have to

I'll say it out loud

Done living without

Peace on the comedown

Finds me brand new
