Oh, sweet relief! We finally meet
Was fate designed with you in mind-
unkind and brief?
Enough to compete
Enough to stand with,
and with stand defeat
I've spent half my days
in this passing phase.
I'm here and there's nowhere to leave
Our time has come
Time to wager
whether we belong
As I confess in my Sunday best,
You're not impressed
But you're not everything you seem
Tomorrow's buzz is
next week's has-been
Who never was
To my surprise, through aging eyes
I realize it's clear to see
you can't fake these things, you wait and see,
they're gone
You'll have your day
and then you'll have your dawn
Hold on. Cease to carry on
Now you're gaining ground you're losing steam
It's all a fantasy it's a fever dream
Down the streets where you belong
To my surprise, through aging eyes
I realize it's clear to see
I've designed these scars
Self-inflicted, I've analyzed them all
You'll have your day and then
You'll have your dawn
In a brand new town somehow, we still belong.
