lyrics
Come on out of the woods now
We've overcome the overreactions and sordid distractions
When you close your eyes, you picture us in places
How far can you take this?
Erase it
You don't want to know where you are
Can't you see we don't stand a chance
Unless we ask the question we don't want to answer
Did we take our time?
Or are we barreling towards a disaster?
"I wanna go faster!"
If we don't concede it's just a matter of time
Before even our best intentions fall behind
These tests and escalations we crawl inside
And follow in turn 'till there's nowhere left to go
Can't you see we don't stand a chance
Unless we ask the question we're too scared to answer
Did we take our time?
Or are we barreling towards a disaster?
Can't you see, we both chose to chance it
On a big idea and outpaced advances
Can we make it right?
Or are we stuck here with more than we asked for?
