Marathon

Verse 1
We haven’t arrived, where we’ve come from
nostalgia knows the doors to knock on
In maudlin moments, life makes sense
Then we remember the present tense.

Chorus
Forward thinking, from a backward glance
Who would’ve thought I’d take this stance?
Forgiveness, the treadmill I’m working on
Cause we’re not a sprint, but a marathon

Verse 2
Rose tinted mirrors, reflecting the deal
We made with ourselves, keeping it real
Flowery wallpaper, covering the cracks
Our House of dreams, with rules you relaxed

Chorus
Forward thinking, from a backward glance
Who would’ve thought I’d take this stance?
Forgiveness, the treadmill I’m working on
Cause we’re not a sprint, but a marathon


Verse 3
We haven’t got to where we’ve come from
nostalgia knows the doors to knock on
when we remember and life makes sense
then we’ve arrived at the present tense.

Bridge
A revolving story, hope keeps us moving
with each lap, times are improving
We may be injured, it's a painful fall
Confidence bruised by another’s call

Chorus
Forward thinking, from a backward glance
I never thought I’d take this stance
Forgiveness, the treadmill I’m working on
Cause you’re not my sprint, you’re my marathon
