"Moments"

The past is perfect
The present's a shame
My perception in the moment
Will surely fade

And all these moments added up
Moments that were never good enough
Now make me wish I was back there
Make me wish I hadn't given up

The past is perfect
The present's a shame
My future is another fear
That I can't shake

And all these questions in my head
Insecurities I've fed
Have made me wonder where I am
And where this hesitance began

And I can't live, I can't live like this
How did I make it through before
Was it just one moment at a time
Tiny rocks I gathered in each stride
Or something more

I'm lost for words
As I've always been
With the gleaming moments
Only running thin

I want to be remembered
For the things I did
But right now, those actions
Undecided

And I can't live, I can't live like this
So get my feet up on the floor
And take it one moment at a time
Even if it means to go in blind
To something more

To something more
To something more
Than I am or ever been before
To something more
To something more
There's a place that I belong
On a distant shore

And I can't live, I can't live like this
I wanna see the other side
So I'll take it one moment at a time
Till they all run out the day I die
To know that I'm alive
