Attention To Detail

By Life Lessons (2017)
On album Best When in Motion (2017)

Best When in Motion
Memorize every detail of the skyline
When I burn out
I want to remember this
Maybe I'm lacking confidence
But the problem isn't that
It's that I could be young forever
And when I see skies like these I feel small
And I feel weak

I thought with time
Came improvement
It still doesn't seem like I'm whole
Can't be again
If it turns out I never was

Just give me something worth really remembering
Something strong to ward off all the doubt in me
What I have should be enough

So why am I still breaking?
I couldn't make this more obvious

Can't turn it off
So we're best when in motion
Things seem grey
I refuse to get over it
We shouldn't have to accept how it happens
Just because it's what it is

(It's what it is)
It's what it is
And what I have should be enough

I thought with time
Came improvement
It still doesn't seem like I'm whole
Can't be again
If it turns out I never was

Just give me something worth really remembering
Something strong to ward off all the doubt in me
Am I the only one that sees others breaking?

In myself
I see the same thing
In myself
I've searched and found nothing

It took a long time
Too long to become aware
Of what I thought of the world
And what I thought of myself
