I’m Told

I’m in over my head. All these thoughts are an ocean that I’m drowning in. I’m in over my—I’m in over my head

Judah & The Lion
Adding to the possibilities with each passing moment.
Working around the clock to satisfy and recruit a feeling that will lead me to the truth.
I'm told that I don't have to move too fast.
I'm told that a date is just a date.

I'm ready,
I want to be ready.

Adding to the possibilities with each fleeting moment. 
Working around the clock to qualm these conflicting feelings.
I'm told that I don't have to make a decision right away.
I'm told that it is okay to take your time. 

But here I am in a place I've never been to before.
Trying to decipher which way to steer my ship.
One way seems like the best choice,
but that doesn't stop my chest from doing flips when the other is around. 

I'm ready,
I want to be ready.

I have no desire to lead you on.
I have no desire to break my heart into a million pieces.
I don't know how to do this aspect of life.
Because I usually just stumble into the deep end.

I tumbled down and hit the water with a splash.
My head went under, and the water engulfed every part of me.
I was invested before I ever learned how to swim.
And with that, I drowned, and here I am ready for another life.

A cycle,
A break,
I don't want anyone to follow me down,
Unless they are ready for the deep end.
Maybe someone to rescue me. 

Whoever that may be I want to be ready.
Whoever that may be needs to know that my head is my home.
Whoever that may be, I hope to take their hand and learn to swim better together.
Whoever that may be, I know I need to take my time before the final dive.
 
I'm ready,
I want to be ready.

Adding to the possibilities with each passing moment.
Working around the clock to satisfy and recruit a feeling that will lead me to the truth.
Adding to the possibilities with each fleeting moment. 
Working around the clock to qualm these conflicting feelings.

One, two, three
I get ready to jump
One, two, three
I think I'll wait before I go.

I'm ready,
I want to be ready.
