Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I keep my focus on the simple things
Tryin' to find some peace along the way
Wish I knew how long I'm supposed to wait
Holding on but just barely
[Verse 2]
Got the feeling I've been talking to a dead, dead line
There's always a reason to let it change
Is there anyone there listening while you cry, cry, cry?
There's always a reasoning for the pain
[Verse 3]
I'm doing the things that I'd hoped
Every day, every day, every day
Then why does it feel like I'm moving
In place, in a place, in a place?
[Verse 4]
Never had anything to prove
But never was anyone like you
All you fought through, all you had to face
Made you stronger, unafraid
[Verse 5]
Got the feeling I've been talking to a dead, dead line
There's always a reason to let it change
Is there anyone there listening while you cry, cry, cry?
Always a reasoning for the pain
[Verse 6]
I'm doing the things that I'd hoped
Every day, every day, every day
Then why does it feel like I'm moving
In place, in a place, in a place?
Gotta believe that you're there
When I say, when I say, when I say
'Cause if you're not real
I'm losing my head, in my head, in my head
[Verse 7]
Got the feeling I've been talking to a dead, dead line
There's always a reason to let it change
Is there anyone there listening while you cry, cry, cry?
Always a reasoning for the pain
[Verse 8]
I'm doing the things I've been told
Every day, every day, every day
Why does it feel like I'm moving
In place, in a place, in a place?
Gotta believe that you're there
When I say, when I say, when I say
'Cause if you're not real
I'm losing my head, in my head, in my head
[Verse 9]
I keep my focus on the simple things
Tryin' to find some peace along the way
