lyrics

I'm taking all the time that I can to appreciate
All the things I miss
I'm taking all the time that I can to appreciate
All the little things, the minor bliss
I'm taking all the time that I can to appreciate
All the things I miss
I'm taking all the time that I can to appreciate
All the little things, the minor bliss

I was forcefully evicted from a life I've never known
Forcefully injected to a place that I never chose
Laughing 'cause I'm crying 'cause I'm undecided
To whether or not I can hide it,
My confusion about this situation
One I've not yet encountered
I need to learn to swim before I start to flounder
And I can't even get these next lines out my mouth

'Cause I'm like, where am I?

I'm taking all the time that I can to appreciate
All the things I miss
Taking all the time that I can to appreciate
All the little things, the minor bliss
I'm taking all the time that I can to appreciate
All the things I miss
Taking all the time that I can to appreciate
All the little things, the minor bliss

And what I foresaw was foreshadowed by an omen
I've forsaken all that I had that wasn't stolen
I've broken every promise that I ever received
And I feel that those closest to me have been deceived
By my misunderstanding of actions and consequences
And my subconscious need to maintain my defenses
And my heart and mind collude and are colliding
My will to assert's been overrided
By this fear that all that I love that I have will be vanishing in an instant
That my contentment will soon fade into the distance
And my vertigo kicks in as I climb this rime

And I'm... I'm panicking


These days as I ponder what could never have been
I'm relying more heavily on things yet unseen
My mind runs riot like a racecar,
Using these experiences thus far while speculating what the future will be
I'm wastefully waiting for my fate to stop shaking
I'm making a molehill of this mountain
And this fountain of youth seems rapidly dwindling
As I miss the now, and I'm just like,

Where did my life go?

I'm taking all the time that I can to appreciate
All the things I miss
Taking all the time that I can to appreciate
All the little things
I'm taking all the time that I can to appreciate
All the things I miss
Taking all the time that I can to appreciate
All the little things, the minor bliss
