I Won’t Be Ready Lyrics by Tall Travis

Witness This!

2023

A radio, a letter
There’s the one I never sent
And the head of my bass guitar
On the pillow on my bed
Nothing lasts forever
But I am here to stay
Never’s not a clever thing to say
And if I grace your pages
With your chosen misery
Then when at night I’m dreaming
Can your mind look out for me
I take you down to the water
But don’t swim out to sea
Cause forever’s not that long
With ground beneath our feet
Time goes on and the innocent
Littlе flicker of my day
Won’t light aflame in history
But if I go, by god, I won’t be rеady
Cause the world is full of forests
And bugs and sticks and you
And the strange way fate keeps shifting
Alround the things you do
If life is like a highway
We all could crash and die
But right until that moment
I won’t shut my eyes
I don’t know what the goal is
So I won’t know when I’m done
I never want to wish upon
The setting of my sun
So take me down by accident
Take me by surprise
But right until that moment
I’ll be awake, I’ll be alive
Time goes on and the innocent
Little flicker of my day
Won’t light aflame in history
But if I go, by god, I won’t be ready
I won't be ready
I won't be ready
The letter it reminds me
Of more things I haven’t done
I may not believe in infinity
But I don’t know anyone
Who couldna had another moment
With each other by our sides
If you’d only stay awake and stay alive
Time goes on and the innocent
Little flicker of my day
Won’t light aflame in history
But if I go, by god, I won’t be ready
I won't be ready
I won't be ready
I won't be ready
I won't be ready
