Across the Line

How did I get here
sitting alone on a window sill
they say I'm going somewhere but I've nothing but, time to kill
and I'm waiting
'cause there's nothing that I can do
I'm just waiting
'til I've broken through

It shouldn't be easy
but they say it's not too hard
chase the dreams that keep you from sleeping
there's no distance too far
but I'm waiting 'til my dreams come into view
I'm still waiting

and it feels like wasted time
when it's hard to keep believing in the
promises that brought me here tonight
so apathy aside
the memories we're making
keep me searching for what
I expect to find across the line

I'm breaching the distance
one step of the bill with every night
got my my eye on the horizon
and the ribbon's in sight
it's a long way (on this?)
mountain left to climb
but I know one day well, my stars will align

And it feels like wasted time
when it's hard to keep believing in the
promises that brought me here tonight
so apathy aside
the memories we're making
keep me searching for what
I expect to find across the line

People are saying
time will fly
and I'll be fine

So while I'm here wasting time
because these critics keep me believing
that tomorrow
I could race across the line

And it feels like wasted time
when it's hard to keep believing in the
promises that brought me here tonight
so apathy aside
the memories we're making
keep me searching for what
I expect to find across the line
