[Verse 1] I’m at gate fourteen With my bag at my feet How can I feel this much isolation With others with the same destination? Dad’s in the next chapter And I’m not ready yet My mother left six years ago Passing time makes it impossible to forget [Pre-Chorus] I keep staring at the floor Like it might tell me more How do you walk through this door? When you’ve never done this before? [Chorus] I don’t know what comes next Mind racing with fear I lost one to heaven Now the other’s drawing near I don’t know what comes next I still need to learn from you I'm still learning how to understand how to be a better man [Verse 2] The speaker calls a boarding group I fumble to find mine Everybody seems to be moving on How did I become the last in line? I want to be strong as I rub my eyes But any strength left slips through my hands [Pre-Chorus] So I breathe in, count to ten Try to get my feet again If I fall apart tonight Let me fall and try again [Chorus] I don’t know what comes next Mind racing with fear I lost one to heaven Now the other’s drawing near I don’t know what comes next I still need to learn from you I'm still learning how to understand how to be a better man [Bridge] If he looks at me and sees All the fear that I can’t hide I hope he sees his child Still standing by his side And if the room goes quiet And the truth won’t let me run My light turns to darkness and I'm grateful to be his son [Chorus] I don’t know what comes next Mind racing with fear I lost one to heaven Now the other’s drawing near I don’t know what comes next I still need to learn from you I'm still learning how to understand how to be a better man [Outro] Gate fourteen I’m still here Gate fourteen I'll soon be there
