Who’s To Say

Acknowledging that it is okay to not know–to not have all the answers–to not be perfect and to work toward patience. It is in breaking free from that desire for control that it becomes easier to not rely on false displays or façades that only get in the way. Of course, none of that is easy to do, but this song suggests we might try.

I’m misaligned, I’m out to lunch
Oh, you lost me way back there
I try to float and hold my breath
But the truth is I don’t care

Putting on pretenses
And if I’m suspended in time
Then the weight of my mind
Can drift for awhile

But I’m still looking for you
In everyone that I see
I can’t trick my head so well
When my heart just won’t agree

It’s like a river rising
I could start revising the route
Afraid of it flooding me out
But the story remains

And who’s to say where I have to land?
Looking back over my shoulder
Reaching forward for your hand
They talk of natural order
But I’m not sure what that means
Maybe I can make it up as I go
And still land on my feet

I want to sing something new
And mean it for a change
It’s all about the words you choose
How they shift and rearrange

With no limitations
And if I’m patient enough
Don’t worry if it’s still rough
Then I’m on my way

And who’s to say where I have to land?
Looking back over my shoulder
Reaching forward for your hand
They talk of natural order
But I’m not sure what that means
Maybe I can make it up as I go
And still land on my feet
