Straylight Run - It's For The Best Lyrics

And it takes more time than I've ever had
Drains the life from me, makes me want to forget
As young as I was, I felt older back then
More disciplined, stronger and certain

But I was scared to death of eternity
I was saved by grace, but destroyed by naivety
And I lied to myself
And said it was for the best

And now faith is replaced with a logic so cold
I've disregarded what I was now that I'm older
And I know much more than I did back then
But the more I learn, the more I can't understand

And I've become content with this life that I lead
Where I drink too much and don't believe in much of anything
And I lie to myself
And say, "It's for the best."

We're moving forward, but holding ourselves back
And we're waiting on something that will never come
We're moving forward, but holding ourselves back
And we're waiting on something that will never come

(We're moving forward, but holding ourselves back
And we're waiting on something that will never come)
And I lie to myself
And say, "It's for the best."

(We're moving forward, but holding ourselves back
And we're waiting on something that will never come)
And I lie to myself
And say, "It's for the best."

(We're moving forward, but holding ourselves back
And we're waiting on something that will never come)
And I lie to myself
And say, "It's for the best."

(We're moving forward, but holding ourselves back
And we're waiting on something that will never come)
And I lie to myself
And say, "It's for the best."

(We're moving forward, but holding ourselves back
And we're waiting on something that will never come)
And I lie to myself
And say, "It's for the best."

(We're moving forward, but holding ourselves back
And we're waiting on something that will never come)
And I lie to myself
And say, "It's for the best."
