Settling Lyrics by Ripe

Bright Blues

2022

[Verse 1]
You get mad when
You get told to watch your tone
Yeah, you get angry
But hold your breath while you count down
And not be angry
Easier to bite your tongue (oh oh oh oh oh)

[Pre-Chorus]
Every time that you behave
Every time you play it safe
You can feel it getting harder
Still, you're...

[Chorus]
Waiting for things to get better
To get better, to get better
But you're not sure if it's now or it's never, or it's never
If it's never been done before
It might bе kinda frightening
But waiting for things to get bettеr, to get better
Feels a lot like settling
Feels a lot like settling
Feels a lot like settling

[Verse 2]
You're still tryin'
But maybe if you let it go
And just stop tryin'
Finally say what's on your mind
To hell with timing
Is it easier to bite your tongue (oh oh oh oh oh)

[Pre-Chorus]
Every time that you behave
Every time you play it safe
You can feel it getting harder
Still, you're...

[Chorus]
Waiting for things to get better
To get better, to get better
But you're not sure if it's now or it's never, or it's never
If it's never been done before
It might be kinda frightening
But waiting for things to get better, to get better
Feels a lot like settling
Feels a lot like settling
Feels a lot like settling
Ay, ay, ay, ay
A lot like settling
Hey, hey, hey, hey

[Chorus]
Waiting for things to get better
To get better, to get better
But you're not sure if it's now or it's never, or it's never
If it's never been done before
It might be kinda frightening
But waiting for things to get better, to get better
Feels a lot like settling
Feels a lot like settling
Feels a lot like settling
Feels a lot like settling
Feels a lot like settling
