while it lasts (feat. Blue Wednesday)

(Yeah)
Hmmmm
Hm hm hm hm
Hmm, hmmm
Hm hm
Hm hm
Hm hm
Perpetually stuck in the past, I
Never know quite what to say, I'm
Not yet where I wanna be but
I guess that's okay, I've
Lived with myself this long
Scared to miss out, of being a buzzkill
I'm watching everyone pass me
And I'm at a standstill
But my mother told me,
"Try to get out of your head,
One day you're gonna miss this
You never take my advice but
Time will take you with it
You're never satisfied
Just a few steps behind feels like an ocean
And you're not meant to feel all that
Just enjoy it while it lasts"
It's not the same as it once was
I looked around and everyone grew up
I had my twenties all planned out
But I never planned on you and
I always spoil the endings
All of the sad, beautiful, tragic
I skip to the last page
So I'm never getting my hopes up
But my mother told me,
"Try to be here in the moment,
There's only so much you can control and
You can't just wait for the right time
I know
I've tried
Always so cautious but you forgot
Life happens in between
And you can't plan for that
Just enjoy this while it lasts"
Oh
La da da da da da dum
