Apperception

On In Retrospect

I’m holding out for a sign

That I didn’t waste the best years of my life

I’m spending these nights thinking

That I can’t shake this

These walls won’t keep me in

Five years, and the legacy we made

I won’t fall back on past mistakes

This life will make or break me

But I’ll be standing tall

I will overcome it all

There’s things I wished I’d never said

I’m sick of hearing that all this strife

Is a product of my head

My bones have carried the weight

The brunt of promises I’ve madе

I’m going under, never thinking I would sink

Somеone tell me I’m right

It’s all I need to hear

That I’m not wasting time

And that I’m in control of my own life

I think I just might be a mess in the meantime

I thought I’d be alright by now

My bones have carried the weight

The brunt of promises I’ve made

I’m going under, never thinking I would sink

I’m holding out for a sign

That I didn’t waste the best years of my life

I’m spending these nights thinking

That I can’t shake this

No, I won’t shake this

I’m fighting tooth and nail

In hopes that I might move on and prevail

For once this life moves past me

I’ve fallen too far and allowed myself to sink

I’m holding out for a sign

I’m holding out for a sign

Someone tell me I’m right

It’s all I need to hear

That I’m not wasting time

And that I’m in control of my own life

I think I just might be a mess in the meantime

I thought I’d be alright by now

These walls won’t keep me in
