lyrics

Note From My Younger Self
we have never met
and likely never will
you are only here 
cause I am good and gone 
I was dreaming of the future
as young men always do
are you who I saw 
or are you someone new  

you're stuck in the moment 
but try not to forget
what drove you, 
what made you, 
what saved you   

I could see no limit 
no limit but the sky 
nothing I wouldn't do 
nothing I wouldn’t try
to reach the place 
I was meant to be
to reach the place 
that was meant for me

now look at where you’re now
have you reached that place somehow?
or would you rather be
back when you were me?
have you come to realize
there is no such place for you?
you wake up every morning 
born as someone new

you're stuck in the moment 
but try not to forget
what drove you, 
what made you, 
what saved you   
I could see no limit 
no limit but the sky 
would you rather be
back when you were me?
have you realized?

I will be with you 
on any given day
you may not see nor feel me 
but I am here to stay
and finally one day 
we will be joined as one
all that is is now
and all that is is here    

you're stuck in the moment 
but try not to forget
what drove you, 
what made you, 
what saved you   
I could see no limit 
no limit but the sky 
would you rather be
back when you were me?
have you realized?
