lyrics

When am I supposed to go?

When am I supposed to go?
How am I supposed to know?
When is this gonna end?
When do I settle down?

No pillow for your head
They say we're far from home
It's how I live my life
Deep or wide, scattering myself across oceans, tides
People-pleasing, you think I should sabbath
I'm a people-pleasing addict

I know love, not to seek my own
I know you're not really the one I always love
I like my place on the stage, I like my angst
My addictions are behind me, but you're not my everything

I'm hoping that you'll at least lead
I'm hoping you'll chase after me
I'm hoping what you've given will sustain
I'm exhausted God, I'm still in pain

I know this is a selfish song
I don't really need to know
Just whisper in my ear
And I'll walk with you down this road
Your paths are better
Your plans are better
