Days That Run Astray

from Victory Laps by Charlie HC

/

lyrics

Everyone has all these flags, packed into their little packs
dreaming of what distant lands they'll plant them in so everyone's
trying their best.

I promise that I won't mean or say a word discouraging because no matter what I think most everyone and everything is
trying their best.

I promise I won't be sarcastic, argue with impassioned
I'll listen with my heart and not just wait until my turn to speak I'm
trying my best.

To pay back all the calories and smiles that I have withheld
all the heys I could have said and privilege that I could have spent
all the kindness I've received from people not that close to me
compliments and kindest words deflected to not accrue debt

*charlie turns a knob on a Logic effect parameter and goes whoosh*

Days that run astray
do the skys and clouds that gradiate
teach me something
something that I can't see,

lessons hard to name?
Am I learning things in deepest sleep?
Am I growing
without even knowing?

Did, by sheer mistake,
I actually give my take?
Did I grow?
Did I know?
