Another year, promises made
Problems created you're not gonna face
Make little progress, pocket the pain

Then put it in a box and lock it away
Watching the days go slow
as the weeks go fast, and the years even faster

a chapter is added before blank pages are filled
Still ask why they're living in the past, coulda had it
All, but all they had came up short

More than enough still never was enough, doors
Getting left shut, floors never getting swept up
Dust now covering and bording what's left of

Before as the walls get taller still
Hide behind that guard that you built
Giving love too quick from a heart of steel

Made a hollow chest with no heart to steal
Still in an upwill war, made it to the door just in time to see
That the key don't fit so you're sitting on the floor,

Front porch of the goal you've been tryna reach
and it's finally in reach,
So close but the worst part is, that it's far as ever though

Spent so much effort on trying to hold on,
but it's time you just learn how to let it go.
