A Little Soon To Say

(album: Downhill From Everywhere - 2021)

I came for inspiration
I came looking for grace
And found my reflection
In every passing face
In everyone who gathered
Standing on that shore
Searching the horizon
Not knowing what exactly for

Searching the horizon
For what we can't quite see
When all we've ever needed
Has been there all along
Inside of you and me

I wanna see you holding out your light
I wanna see you light the way
But whether everything will be alright
It's just a little soon to say

I didn't find much wisdom
When time was on my side
Too little information
Too much time to decide
I took a couple of wrong turns
It only takes you one
To send you down a lifetime
Of wondering what you might've done

Searching for a lifetime
For what you wanna see
When all we've ever needed
Has been there all along
Inside of you and me

I wanna see you holding out your light
I wanna see you find your way
Beyond the sirens in the broken night
Beyond the sickness of our day
And after what we've come to live with
I wanna know if you're okay
We've gotta think it's gonna be alright
It's just a little soon to say

I came for inspiration
I came looking for truth
And joined in celebration
The passing of my youth
We're here but for a moment
And none of us can see
Beyond the horizon
What kind of world this world will be

Searching the horizon
For what we hope to see
When all we've ever needed
Has been there all along
Inside of you and me

I wanna see you holding out your light
I wanna see you light the way
Beyond the sirens in the broken night
Beyond the sickness of our day
And after all we've come to live with
I wanna know if you're okay
I wanna think it's gonna be alright
It's just a little soon to say
