[Intro] Sorrow Turns into sadness Even the dreams You wanted so badly Start to fade Start to die Dreams dying Before they come true So don’t Pack your heart too full Take it easy Keep it In moderation [Verse 1] Trying hard Isn’t a bad thing Holding on Can be good sometimes Even crying For someone you love Might just be A deep cleaning Of the heart But if you hold on Too tightly For too long You might crush The very things You wanted to protect Love Dreams Even being right Hold them too hard And they all Become heavy [Pre-Chorus] Love too much And you start to hate Think too much And nothing makes sense Protect too much And you can make Someone weaker Yeah, We call that Overprotecting Things like that Are everywhere So ordinary You could almost Find them lying By the side of the road [Chorus] So everything In moderation Even loving In moderation Even trying hard In moderation Even being right In moderation Sorrow Turns into sadness And precious wishes Can slowly die So even your feelings Keep them In moderation [Verse 2] Expecting something Isn’t wrong Looking toward the future Isn’t wrong But stare too hard Into tomorrow And everything Around you Starts disappearing Come back to yourself Sometimes It’s okay To reflect But don’t keep Digging up yesterday Until you bury The time You’re living in Right now Along with it [Bridge] A little less Might be just enough Leave a little behind And soon You’ll want it again You don’t have to know Everything Trying to know Absolutely everything That’s amateur stuff Ha ha ha... Even if A few wishes Never come true You’ll probably Still survive Won’t you? [Final Chorus] So everything In moderation Even happiness In moderation Even lonely nights In moderation Maybe growing older Means learning How to stop Before too much If sorrow Can stay sorrow Without touching it Without forcing it A day when you laugh again Usually comes Soon enough So— Everything In moderation Careful Not to overdo it Just enough In moderation
