WIDE EYED

Laced up a new pair of shoes, gonna try this again
Side step the secrets
Jump over the cracks
Don't wanna be cautious at every corner
I'm searching for the word on the street

In these moments we live
There's a moment we miss
And it makes us wish
We could pause time,
Rewind to a slow motion replay
Zoom in on all the silly details
But, we gaze wide eyed at the horizon
We're wide eyed

Lounging, thinking about
Nothing in particular
They say get help, but I
Feel better smiling at my anger
Now, I feel myself falling further
Behind my payments for these free sessions

In these moments we live
There's a moment we miss
One that makes us wish
We could pause time,
Rewind to a slow motion replay
Zoom in on all the stupid mistakes
Then, we stare wide eyed at religion

Maybe, I'm too afraid
Of s**t going worse today
I don't need faux sympathy
Just need you there with me
Need you there with me
Oh, I need you there for me
This city's fallen out of my control
I don't think I can hold
Onto my sanity
So, I need you here with me
Need you here for me
Good Lord, I need you here for me
