Lyrics
Oh so certain it's over the worst of it all
Is behind me, the times we'll remember when we
Can look up to ourselves as the people who made it through all the mistakes, we embrace them as
Lessons, we learned, when we're hurtin it works
We deserve what we earned through the falls and the burns
Every scrape that we face that we etch into skin, we begin it all over
It's sobering, knowing it comes
Full circle, the worst is ahead and we dread
What it brings, what it means, but we sing anyway
What else can we do, there's nothing to lose
And there's nothing to change in the days that we left in the past, and it's good while it lasts
But this moment is all that there is, so we laugh and we
Talk it all out, and we scream and we shout
In the hopes that there's someone who'll hear us all out
When it comes, I'm never quite ready
It's a shame, we've been here already
There's no real reason, no real comfort
Take it as it is, it isn't
Fair, I know it, we all know it's
Never what we wanted it to be
But we just keep on trying
Tryin makin sense of it but
We're so lucky to have good company
Together in misery
Oh so easy to say that we're cursed, it's a way
To make sense of the loss and the pain, so we train ourselves to expect it, never reflecting on all of the good that we all still receive
We believe that there's never release, but there's so much to learn and to love, if you breathe
for a moment you'll notice there's somethin to hold and to cling to, it brings you back up when you need
When it comes, we keep on forgetting
We've been here already
