now

so it sounds selfish, thinking of only me
all i’m doing is realizing what could be
this is not greed, this is not lust
why’s it so wrong to think of only us?

when balancing the good and the bad
can’t base anything on what we “might’ve had”
everything is in the here, the now
it would all be so easy, if I knew how

wait for better days
stay within this haze
think of other ways
lose yourself in this maze

but wait, i have it easy, i know that’s true
and i’m making it so unfair to you
i can see your point, i don’t know why
i ever thought this would be so cut and dry

it takes all the patience i’ve got
to not always burn with one thought
wishing i was there, or you were here
giving anything just to have you near
