What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
Well, I've been searching for a
2
Way to write you down on my list
3
But now I know what it's for
4
It's not a resume or application form
5
No you're not an asterisk on my resume no more
6
So now I'll write it down in case you need my help
7
With singing all your words that raise my settled soul
8
And now I know the risk was worth it all the while
9
I just needed a way to see, to see you
10
And then I wake to find you in my tears
11
Waited to feel you burn inside me all these years
12
That's when I know, I know it all goes back to you
13
Because you are the best that I could do
14
It's hard to find something clear
15
When you're surrounded by clouded minds
16
It's better to know yourself with what little you find
17
All, all on your own than to
18
Find yourself with what little they know
19
So now I'll write it down in case you need my help
20
With singing all your words that raise my settled soul
21
And now I know the risk was worth it all the while
22
I just needed a way to see, to see you
23
One more day
24
One more day to show them
25
One more day
26
One more day to show that I'm not fazed
27
And I won't wait not one more day
