Critical

I’ve always wanted what I can’t have

and I’ve been making it a note to feel what’s left to feel

and put my shoulder to the wheel

Everything about me used to have a mind of it’s own

I’ve got what’s left of me, some positivity

and no more waiting on a dial tone

because I’ve loved and lost a cause

and that’s enough to never let you forget me

We’ve been gone for too long to see this happen again

Then again, you’re too gone to say that’s not what you meant

You’re crying, I’m not trying

I won’t let this life get so critical

Remember the time you asked me to let go?

Where did you want me to begin?

Take a stand

You know you haven’t got what you came for

and recently, my counter seems to be the place to be at night

You were right, I must be wrong for wanting you to know

I let go of the old

and you don’t deserve to see where it leads me to be

and doesn’t that make you question why we were here in the first place?

We’ve been gone for too long to see this happen again

Then again, you’re too gone to say that’s not what you meant

You’re crying, I’m not trying

I won’t let this life get so critical

I’m like a boy lost in a city

not wanting to be found

Everything is a sight to see until you come back around

I’m like a boy lost in a city

not wanting to be found

Everything is a site to see until you come back around

We’ve been gone for too long to see this happen again

Then again, you’re too gone to say that’s not what you meant

You’re crying, I’m not trying

I won’t let this life get so critical
