In Between

36 and 17
Stuck somewhere in the in between
I've been holding out
Not slowing down
I've been trapped inside
A ticking time bomb called my life
Cut the wires
Oh, I've tried, but I'm locked inside

Strike a match and watch the time burn away
Counting years and watching my dreams fade

I can't tell what I'm afraid of
All I know is I don't want to wake up
20 years down the road unable to trust
Your love when I don't have what I want

I'm in overdrive
Took the left lane to save some time
Now I can't stop
Passing my life by with my foot to the floor

Hit the gas and watch the miles illuminate
How far I am from the plans I had made

I can't tell what I'm afraid of
All I know is I don't want to wake up
20 years down the road unable to trust
Your love when I don't have what I want
When I don't have what I want
But what do I want

Will I still be here
At 36 years of age
Still keeping score
Of all the people
Who have what I want
But, oh, I want so much more
Don't want to be left here
Chasing the wind again
I just want to be content
Whatever that means
Wherever that is
Will You hold my heart until then?
Will You teach me how to press in?

Will You hold my heart until then?
Will You teach me how to press in?
