I Wasn't Ready

(album: It's Gonna Be OK - 2021)

I think I need to explain
The mistakes that I made
I spent so long pushing
When we weren't looking it changed

So how was your day?
I know it's been so strange
While I was reaching for stars
I was dropping your heart all over again

It's a hard hand to hold
When you're letting go

I wasn't ready for the red light coming on
I wasn't ready for the right life going wrong
Wasn't ready for the tightrope swinging
My life boat sinking, no

I never noticed all the good things going on
I only saw that you were here once you were gone
Wasn't ready for the whole world spinning
Don't feel like winning at all

They never teach you the fall
When they're building you up
When it starts to rain
There's nothing to save you from the flood

It's a hard hand to hold
But now that you're gone

I wasn't ready for the red light coming on
I wasn't ready for the right life going wrong
Wasn't ready for the tightrope swinging
My life boat sinking, no

I never noticed all the good things going on
I only saw that you were here once you were gone
Wasn't ready for the whole world spinning
Don't feel like winning at all

I wasn't ready
I wasn't ready

I wasn't ready for the red light coming on
I wasn't ready for the right life going wrong
Wasn't ready for the tightrope swinging
My life boat sinking, no

I never noticed all the good things going on
I only saw that you were here once you were gone
Wasn't ready for the whole world spinning
Don't feel like winning at all

I wasn't ready
I wasn't ready
I wasn't ready
I wasn't ready

And I'm sorry
That I let it in
And that I let you down
I wasn't ready

I wasn't ready for the red light coming on
I wasn't ready for the right life going wrong
Wasn't ready for the tightrope swinging
My life boat sinking, no
