I'll Never Be Ready

(album: The Beast You Feed - 2018)

You were the one to hold me
The warmth of your arms would heal my wounds
You were the one who knew me
When nobody else understood

Even if I knew when I saw the signs
Even if you told me it'd be alright
Even if I had the power to watch the clock wind down, I won't
Cause you're here right now

I'll never be ready, ready, ready
To say goodbye
I'll never be ready, ready, ready
No, I'll never be ready, ready, ready
Oh, ready, ready, ready

I don't have to think about it
A world without you is not what I want
Still you must leave
And I don't like it
But I'll never forget how much I was loved, loved

Even if I knew when I saw the signs
Even if you told me it'd be alright
Even if I had the power to watch the clock wind down, I won't
Cause you're here right now

And I'll never be ready, ready, ready
To say goodbye
I'll never be ready, ready, ready
No, I'll never be ready, ready, ready
No, I'll never be ready, ready, ready
Oh, ready, ready, ready

Not all of us are lucky enough
To know a love so unconditional
I can't imagine what I would have been without you
You showed me how to fly
And that I might be invincible

But I'll never be ready
To say goodbye
I'll never be ready, ready, ready
No, I'll never be ready, ready, ready
No, I'll never be ready, ready, ready
Oh, ready, ready, ready
