Taking Steps

[Verse 1]

I've started taking steps, deconstructing plans

I've always wanted to be so much more than what I can

And it's alright, 'til late at night

When I'm alone, no one's awake to pick up the phone


[Verse 2]

I've started taking breaths, three quarters, hold, then let out

'Cause too much oxygen makes me feel like I'm freaking out

And it's okay, I've got all day

To lay in bed, then go to work and pretend


[Chorus]

That everything's okay

And tomorrow, I can start the change

Tonight, do what it takes to feel happy

Even if it's damaging in every way

Everything's okay

And tomorrow, I can start the changе


[Verse 3]

Been trying to do my best, I know it's not all great

But things are feeling bеtter, just a little every day

I know it won't always be so

But I can't do much more than my best and I know


[Chorus]

That everything's okay

And tomorrow, I can start the change

Tonight, do what it takes to feel happy

Even if it's damaging in every way

Everything's okay

Tomorrow, I can start the change


[Bridge]

And yeah, I'm worried that tomorrow doesn't come

I'm way too good at finding excuses to come undone

To come undone

To come undone

To come undone

I've started taking steps, deconstructing plans

I've always wanted to be so much more than what I can


[Outro]

I've started taking breaths (Everything's okay)

Three quarters, hold, then let out

(Tomorrow, I can start the change)

'Cause too much oxygen makes me feel like I'm freaking out

(Everything's okay, tomorrow I can start the change)

Everything is okay

Tomorrow I can start the change

Everything is okay
