the perfect time never came and maybe that’s the point you wait for signs, for skies to clear for silence to replace the fear but every second slips away while you rehearse what you won’t say life ain’t pausing, not for you it’s moving fast, it’s pushing through and all the while you hold your breath you trade your dreams for safety nets they told you “wait until it’s right” but “right” just hides behind the night what if the truth you never knew is no one starts when they’re ready to? start anyway start with shaking hands, start with doubt start even if the map’s worn out don't wait for light to clear the gray start anyway start unprepared, start with a scar start not knowing who you are the fear won’t leave, but that’s okay start anyway you’ve watched the world from the side faking calm, but screaming inside you thought that perfect was the key but perfect’s just a fantasy others moved while you stood still they climbed the dark, they broke their will they weren’t sure, they weren’t strong but they knew waiting was the wrong song what will you see when you rewind? a trail of courage or lost time? the voice that told you “maybe not” is just the fear of what you’ve got start anyway start with shaking hands, start with doubt start even if the map’s worn out don't wait for light to clear the gray start anyway start unprepared, start with a scar start not knowing who you are the fear won’t leave, but that’s okay start anyway there is no time that will feel right you’ve gotta run before you fight you’ll never know until you try so leave regret and touch the sky start anyway start with shaking hands, start with doubt start even if the map’s worn out don't wait for light to clear the gray start anyway start unprepared, start with a scar start not knowing who you are the fear won’t leave, but that’s okay start anyway
