Tides
I measure
My life
In Before and Afters
If ignorance is bliss
I'll take the latter
But the years
Keep on coming
And that ladder
Keeps on growing taller
I measure
My life
In little pleasures
Though long game is the way
I take the short adventure
But the years
Keep on coming
And I ain't getting no returns
The world turns
And I'm just trying to keep up
But the more I learn
The less I can adjust
And I keep thinking about the time
You told me what you thought
Was gonna happen
And we hung up the phone
And I prayed to a God
I don't believe in
And if some things improve
Others get worse
And I
Can't look at the good
Without thinking it's a trojan horse
And I don't wanna go back
But I can't stay where I am
'Cause it all keeps on going
Whether or not
I can
I measure
My life
In nostalgia whether
I'm holding on to good or bad
I've never really been skilled at
Severing tethers
But the years
Keep on coming
And I'm running out of room
I measure
My life
In what I should do better
But I'm trying to do better
At trying to do better
The world turns
And I'm still pushing a boulder uphill
With all of my might
And I've learned
Sometimes there's no summit in sight
And I keep thinking about the time
I took that red eye to Boston
How naive I was
Thinking that
Was exhaustion
And if some things improve
Others fall apart
And I
Can't look at the good
Without waiting for the other shoe to drop
And I don't wanna go back
But I can't stay where I am
Cause it all keeps on going
Whether or not
I can
My life
In Before and Afters
If ignorance is bliss
I'll take the latter
But the years
Keep on coming
And that ladder
Keeps on growing taller
I measure
My life
In little pleasures
Though long game is the way
I take the short adventure
But the years
Keep on coming
And I ain't getting no returns
The world turns
And I'm just trying to keep up
But the more I learn
The less I can adjust
And I keep thinking about the time
You told me what you thought
Was gonna happen
And we hung up the phone
And I prayed to a God
I don't believe in
And if some things improve
Others get worse
And I
Can't look at the good
Without thinking it's a trojan horse
And I don't wanna go back
But I can't stay where I am
'Cause it all keeps on going
Whether or not
I can
I measure
My life
In nostalgia whether
I'm holding on to good or bad
I've never really been skilled at
Severing tethers
But the years
Keep on coming
And I'm running out of room
I measure
My life
In what I should do better
But I'm trying to do better
At trying to do better
The world turns
And I'm still pushing a boulder uphill
With all of my might
And I've learned
Sometimes there's no summit in sight
And I keep thinking about the time
I took that red eye to Boston
How naive I was
Thinking that

And if some things improve

And I
Can't look at the good
Without waiting for the other shoe to drop
And I don't wanna go back
But I can't stay where I am
Cause it all keeps on going
Whether or not
I can
