Going Nowhere

The way you call me out to prove that you're ahead
You're only giving me time to catch up
I'm sorry I'm so different from what you'd expect
So take back everything you've said
I don't have confidence pouring out my pockets

Just this once, just this time
See it from my eyes
See it from my eyes

I made a wish and I let it rest
You hid it deep inside the largest chest
Maybe you don't always know best

Tell me one more time how we're going nowhere
As we race on by
One day from now, the afterglow of how far we've come will outshine the distance it took us to get here
As we race on by

The view must be nice when your head is up so high
You'd fall for miles from the imagined top you watch from
Didn't you notice I've been here all along
This will be more than just a dream, but the only reality that has ever been

Don't lose sight of who you thought I once was
I can't help the way I am
I can't change what you believe
You gave me clouds, I'll give you a storm

Tell me one more time how we're going nowhere
As we race on by
One day from now, the afterglow of how far we've come will outshine the distance it took us to get here
As we race on by
