Days in Reverse

I got my eye on the horizon
Never before has it been this clear
Just like the man who never got what he wanted
Somehow, someway, what he needed appeared

So I'm sitting here, ready for something
Whatever it may be, I'm not too sure
But I now know the worth of a life well-lived
Despite all these things we've gotta endure

And I can't fight it anymore
I look ahead to whatever's in store
Cause I know for a fact that I'll do what I need to do
And maybe, on the other side of it all, will be you

I'm done living these days in reverse
All these blessings, they satiate the curse
Done fighting shadows on the walls of my hometown
Anything worth the fight always sticks around

I'll always remember the moments that meant nothing at the time
Little did I know, they'd all lead me here
And now it's like I'm living a whole different life
Everything so beautiful, so free, and so clear

I take a look out on the water
And the sky, there's not a cloud in sight
Everything I need, sitting right here beside me
And the sun on my face, shining so bright

So I don't fight it anymore
There's a new heart at the core
And I know for a fact, what's to come is better than what's been
And maybe, when it's all said and done, I'll see you again

I'm done living these days in reverse
All these blessings, they satiate the curse
Done chasing shadows on the walls of my hometown
Anything worth it always comes back around
