It's For The Best

And it takes more time than I've ever had

Drains the life from me

Makes me want to forget

As young as I was, I felt older back then

More disciplined, stronger and certain

But I was scared to death of eternity

I was saved by grace

But destroyed by naivety

And I lied to myself

And said it was for the best

So now faith is replaced with a logic so cold

I've disregarded what I was

Now that I'm older

And I know much more than I did back then

But the more I learn

The more I can't understand

And I've become content with this life that I lead

Where I drink too much and don't believe in much of anything

And I lied to myself

And said "it's for the best."

We're moving forward, but holding ourselves back

And we're waiting on something that will never come
