Theres a paper mountain piling up beneath my calendar.
Filled with plans made to preoccupy me and little reminders.
See I’ve been making little changes but usually I’m just getting stuck.
Now I’m looking forward to the day when I awake and all my change has added up.
Cause I’m getting there, I’m almost ready,
I can taste it on my tongue.
And I don’t care, I’m in no hurry,
I’ll be fine some time in this millennium.
I hear my phone ring, it’s an old friend and I don’t want to answer.
There is nothing new to say, I hope they’re ok, I’m not up for banter.
But soon enough I’ll make the effort and I’ll get it all together.
Its just these past few months have been out of control, its starting to feel like forever.
As far as stories go, this ones been told, Its hundreds of years old.
As far as lessons learned, this ones been earned, everyone takes their turn.
Everyone takes their turn.
