lyrics

What speed should I go
Should I walk real slow
Or move ahead and later
catch my breath

Should I grab ahold
Or let it all pass by
Let them all pass by
Let them all pass by
Without blinking an eye

Which path should I take
Is this a big mistake
To move side to side
When you can just go straight

Should I fall in line
Or step aside this time
This time
This time
It’s gotta be right

We should all be safe
But never
Completely dysfunctional

To not only breathe
But to take deep breaths

I want to walk slowly
Speak softly
I don’t need to be right at all
Just content in my mind

My mind is a script playing out in my head
The lines keep changing as a new scene begins

I’d like to see you manage frustration like I do
I wouldn’t touch it if I were you

My temperament has changed from years that have gone by
I say it’s time for a change, it’s time to come alive
