Exit Strategy

Exit coming
Please don't make me wait
If your exits coming
Don't make a mistake

Cause there's a difference between
Thinking about something and doing it after
Distance between reading about something and seeing it happen

I see when i look back in time a life i barely recognize
Holding on isn't always right I feel myself slipping behind

Potholes on a busy road like
Waking from the longest dream
The road is closed and there's no exit
There's no point in bothering

Paddles laying on the boat but
I cross my arms and float upstream
I don't know I don't know
River calls me back to where I

Started I wish
The waters honest

I close my eyes
And look I back on it
I take a breath
But it seems no better in retrospect

Exit coming
Please don't make me wait
If your exits coming
Don't make a mistake
There's a difference between
Thinking about something and doing it after
Distance between reading about something and seeing it happen

I see when i look back in time a life i barely recognize
Holding on isn't always right I feel myself slipping behind

And as I leave the scene I see a fire in the wake
Voices gather round me as they beckon me to wait
What an opulent display!
Gaze into the brightness and I wonder if it's safe
I could think about it longer and then maybe I would stay
What an opulent display!
