We Can't Rush These Things

Struggling to ever do anything right
Always show up late or leave too early
There's no rhyme or reason to my actions
Forever on the fence
Reaching out to others in defense
Useless reassurance

We need to slow this all down
Wait a minute and take a step back

Slowly finding out what works
What doesn't, what ends up hurting the most
A never ending story
Watching others go, no worries

We need to slow this all down
Wait a minute and take a step back
Take a step back
Do everything a little slower
So the days can go on longer

Backing down, only moments to go
Retracing all my steps
Can't stand the thought
Of never reaching true completion
Falling behind
On the most basic needs and actions

We need to slow this all down
Wait a minute and take a step back
Take a step back
Do everything a little slower
So the days can go on longer
