Spent my whole life swimming upstream through the water
And never really getting much further than the day before
But I keep digging, never wondering what it is I'm after
Just tryna find a way to move faster, and do what I was told
Afraid what I might find if I open up my eyes
And see that life's not the way that I believed
If this ain't real, what the hell am I doing here?
These days, people talk too much
Can't say no, get caught up in the come and go
Untether from that restless soul, and take it slow, oh-oh-oh-oh
All these people waiting on anything to happen
Just caught up in another distraction, so they don't feel a thing
But oh I want to feel the weight of every single minute
Catch up all the time that I've been missing
Every high and every low
Afraid what I might find if I open up my eyes
And see that life's not the way that I believed
If this is real, why does everyone disappear?
These days, people talk too much
Can't say no, get caught up in the come and go
Untether from your restless soul, and take it slow, oh-oh-oh-oh
And I feel like I am waking up
And I feel like I have had enough
These days, people talk too much
Can't say no, get caught up in the come and go
Untether from your restless soul, and take it slow
These days, people talk too much
Can't say no, get caught up in the come and go
Untether from that restless soul, and take it slow, oh-oh-oh-oh
