Guide by Eliquate Lyrics
I just can not chase it
Dreams of backpacks and basements
Abstract achievements
Formative in their placement
Time laps by years of travel at a pace that
Takes more to swim out than saved for the way back
Gone 10 years and still going strong but
Damned if the current isn't keeping me in harm's
Way way way back stroke feeling safe act
Sane for the quote relay there is hope that
All of this will go according to a plan that
I just do not know I really understand at
Least I can say it was fun while it lasted
Savor the good times, and run for the casket
Tragic only in the way i reacted
Allowing the best of me be swayed by distractions
Im asking you to celebrate my passion
I can look forward to a future not passing like...
Guide me I thought I'd do better than this
But its clear I have missed something
I know its hard to tell
But you don't really know me all that well
There is no excuse for lazy
Watching my peers pass me
I must be crazy
Letting years stack back to back
And maybe
Is all I have in the battle against aging, like maybe
I could get paid for entertaining, like maybe
I could make the grade and not fade away
And say that hey, at least I'm great at saying I am great
At the game I'm not playing, but scathing by my complaining
Lately, I feel the brunt of what is best for me
Accept defeat and move on will never be accepted see
This is a process, at least that's what I tell myself
Exhausted but restless little lies do always help
And I'm gonna see if I can last a little longer
What does not kill you will only make you stronger
With the exception of cancer, non-terminal diseases
Injuries, emotional scars, and passing seasons
Dreams of backpacks and basements
Abstract achievements
Formative in their placement
Time laps by years of travel at a pace that
Takes more to swim out than saved for the way back
Gone 10 years and still going strong but
Damned if the current isn't keeping me in harm's
Way way way back stroke feeling safe act
Sane for the quote relay there is hope that
All of this will go according to a plan that
I just do not know I really understand at
Least I can say it was fun while it lasted
Savor the good times, and run for the casket
Tragic only in the way i reacted
Allowing the best of me be swayed by distractions
Im asking you to celebrate my passion
I can look forward to a future not passing like...
Guide me I thought I'd do better than this
But its clear I have missed something
I know its hard to tell
But you don't really know me all that well
There is no excuse for lazy
Watching my peers pass me
I must be crazy
Letting years stack back to back
And maybe
