Are We There Yet Lyrics by Skittish

Midwest Handshake

0

Time was when they would laugh at my innocence
Time was when I would eat where the teachers sit
But don’t be afraid of any choice that you make
It's about timing and trying and falling on your face
Grab on with both hands to something and darling don’t be ashamed
Cause all you can do is just wait
Time was when I couldn’t wait to get out of town
Time was when I would walk with my head down
And never say something or make the assumption
I’m worth more than nothing, well fuck that
Don’t shy away from any chance to be great
All of the royals of the school halls, well they never move away
Grab on with both hands to something and darling don’t be ashamed
Cause all you can do is just wait
Hold tight
There’s gonna be a bright new war a comin’ for you
Hold tight
And dry your eyes
Cause there will come a time
When you twist the knife
And years down the road
You’ll come home a success to the mess that you left
And you’ll pass by a face with a smile that once used to spit bile
And they’ll say “been a while, hey it's me from the day”
And with all of the grace you can muster say
“Well, that just don’t ring a bell”
As you walk on politely, but differently
Never again will you bend the knee
Seasoned by time, its what sweetens the line
So just focus on climbing and don’t say “Are we there yet?”
Say, “Are we there yet?”
Don’t say “Are we there yet?”
It’s a small win, but trust me, it's god-damn satisfying
