lyrics

Quite a ways to go
It's hard to know just how long
I can
And I can try to know myself again
Again

When I've got nowhere to search I just zoom in and pull around, walk to the living room and sit back down, take a minute to turn over all the cushions
There's some comfort in it
But I keep looking
Used to drive to the value village down the street, just to see a bunch of soft things
Walked the aisles fast to save all my money
I've got a little extra now but there's not much coming

I'm so, good at driving I can
Do it, while I'm crying i can
Do it, all the way home I can
Do it, just to feel alone

Quite a ways to go
It's hard to know just how long I can
And I can try to know myself again

A year can really drag you through a way that you are not
And it can drag you tills those knotts all turn right into tighter knotts
And if the years keep trying little ways that you don't want to be
To your guts and shoulders and your jaws, your wrists, and lower back
You might find it hard to see yourself
You might find it hard to see yourself for what you want to be
Instead of for the things that just make your life too hard
instead of for the things that just make it really really hard

Quite a ways to go
It's hard to know just how long I can
And I can try to know myself again
