saving up

reaching out
speaking over the crowd
i’m honest, i promise
i’m not giving it away
all that i’ve made


and for the world
for all that it’s worth
i’m not giving in
i’m not giving it
i’m not giving it a break
like you say


all the good things
are wrapped up and tethered to you


on the side
i’ve been saving up strength for the wild
all the while
i’ve been dreaming up what i desire
and all this time
i’ve been saving up
and making up where i could be


but it’s already five
yeah it’s already time


i want to hold
the hand that feeds
i’ve been told a lie i believed
that in this world
there’s you and me
and all the things in between to keep
i’ve been sold a dream i don’t need


on the side
i’ve been saving up strength for the wild
all the while
i’ve been dreaming up what i desire
and all this time
i’ve been saving up
and making up where i could be


is it already time?
is it already mine?


every dream that’s good
is worth every no
everything i did
i did it so
i could learn to live thankful
make peace in my soul
i’m restless not ready to go
but i’ll go


on the side
i’ve been saving up strength for the wild
all the while
i’ve been dreaming up what i desire
and all this time
i’ve been saving up
and making up where i could be


is it already mine?
has it always been time?
