Lyrics Mat Kearney

Mat Kearney

Never Be Ready

We've got our feet on the wire, talking 'bout flying

Maybe we're diving in over our heads

Scared of what I'm feeling

Staring at the ceiling here tonight

Come on lay down these arms, all our best defenses

We're taking our chances here on the run

The fear is an anchor, time is a stranger

Love isn't borrowed, we aren't promised tomorrow

We'll never be ready if we keep waiting

For the perfect time to come

Won't be steady, we'll never be ready

Where we don't know, though we can't see

Just walk on down this road with me

Won't be steady, never be ready

You're okay, you're with me here in the silence

With all of the violence crashing around

Saying we can't go, saying we don't know

This road that is narrow is the one we should follow

We'll never be ready if we keep waiting

For the perfect time to come

Won't be steady, we'll never be ready

Where we don't know, though we can't see

Just walk on down this road with me

Won't be steady, we'll never be ready

Steady my hands, this one can turn around

Steady my heart, it's beating faster

Steady my hands, this one can turn around

Steady my heart, it's beating faster, beating faster now

We'll never be ready if we keep waiting

For the perfect time to come

Won't be steady, we'll never be ready

Where we don't know, though we can't see

Just walk on down this road with me

Won't be steady, never be ready

Won't be steady, never be ready

Won't be steady, we'll never be ready

Won't be steady, never be ready
