the meantime Lyrics

I can't be the person that you think I am

At least not for a little while

Ever changing facing, in a bind, I can't

At least not for a little while

I'm getting bored of faking smiles

I can't keep up the ruse, I've tried

I'm finding peace in messing up

I'm finding out it's not enough

I've been holding my breath hoping I might stop

Holding onto everything that I've done wrong

I'm seeing color for the first time

But seeing you is like an exhale

I'm getting bored of faking smiles

I can't keep up the ruse, "I'm fine"

I'm finding peace in messing up

I'm finding out it's not enough

There's a tender place between who I am

And who I'd rather be

And I can't stop pressing on it, no

And I can't start being honest now

There's a tender place between who I am

And who I'd rather be

And I can't stop pressing on it, no

And I can't start being honest now

I'm getting bored of faking smiles

I can't keep up the ruse, "I'm fine"

I'm finding peace in messing up

I'm finding out it's not enough

The meantime's such a mean time

I'm finding peace in messing up

I'm finding out that it's enough
