Mother Once Said

Take it

That roller-coaster ride ticket to wait

Where you know you'll have it all

Where you know it don't take that much

To slip and fall

Where that sky that you loved now seems so goddamn small

And the ones who say no words well they say it all

And all you wanted was to believe

My mother once said if it's meant to be than it's meant to be

So why don't you try to be a little more easy on yourself

And look at your heart and try to put it back to where it started please

Don't you worry about me

I guess you'll have to wait and see it in the movies

It's a progress

A progress that you learn for yourself

It's not a lesson from someone else

Yet not a crime that you pull off easily on your own

And the fat lady so desperately tries to call you back home

But your shoes are over shined and they stand alone

Where all you wanted was to believe

Now I've found solid ground

But nothing seems to aid this earthquake state of mind

Look around, slam that round

You know it's gonna burn all the way down

No, let it go

Let it go

You know your feet are right where they are meant to be

All you wanted was to believe
