[Verse 1]

Ask the wind to push you along

And the girl next door, what's her favorite song

It might just be the key to her heart

Don't need to know how to sing

When passion goes far

Keep it rolling even when it gets hard

Nobody gets confidence from the start

[Pre-Chorus]

If you're lying (you’re lying)

There isn't much to say

You need to try (try)

No one can force you to explain

[Chorus]

Open your mind

To the world of afterthoughts

That wanna hide

But you gotta let them cross

[Post-Chorus]

'Cause they grow old, oh, they grow old

'Til it pours out from your eyes

So follow, oh, follow

So you stop wondering why

Before it dies, oh

Before it dies, oh

[Verse 2]

If you overthink, think about all the stars

And how you can't see much 'til you see in the dark

So it'll take some time, to see where you are (where you are)

[Pre-Chorus]

And if you're crying (crying)

There isn't much to say

At least you tried it (tried it)

Now you're in a different place

[Chorus]

Open your mind

To the world of afterthoughts

That wanna hide

But you gotta let them cross

[Post-Chorus]

'Cause they grow old, oh they grow old

'Til it pours out from your eyes

So follow, oh follow

So you stop wondering why

Before it dies, before it dies

Before it dies, before it dies

Before it dies, before it dies

Before it dies, before it dies

Before it dies, before it dies

Before it dies, before it dies

[Outro]

—I’m afraid to accept it, kind of?

It’s like, you guys know what a “Hero’s Journey” is?

(Yeah, yeah, yeah)

You get this call, and you resist, and you resist

And then you get the hard call, and once you accept the hard call

I mean, there’s no turning back

(Yeah)

Exactly

(But also, like, you’re chosen, right?)
