Been a long time coming

She drifts in from a smile and says
she’s been thinking bout moving for a while.
Now that the oceans have finally found their bed.
But in the third row from from the back
I hear somebody tryin not to laugh.
As if to say, “some things are better left unsaid”.
But while the world still refuses,
to make a diary of what it chooses,
me and her will just make paper from this thread.

Cause it’s been a long, a long time coming.
Its been a long, a long time coming.
Its a long long time coming.
and I feel like I’m slipping inside my skin.

Today even the cupid, knows that everbody’s stupid.
Cause it’s cheaper when you’re taking your own advice.
Oh but time never changes,
your dreams just get a little more faded.
And you start to look out the window more than twice.
But while this kitchen keeps on humming
and this guitar keeps on strumming.
I’ll just sit here and watch the juggler throw away his dice.

Cause it’s been a long, a long time coming.
Its been a long, a long time coming.
Its a long long time coming.
and I feel like I’m slipping inside my skin.

I knew I was in trouble, when I stepped outside my little buble.
Cause I been saving up my breath ever since.
Cause when you dont love yourself,
you start to hate everyone else.
And you feel like happiness is a place you’ve never been.
I wanna throw away those old photographs,
cause they just confirm to me that I’m feeling sad.
And they feel like a life I never lived.

Cause it’s been a long, a long time coming.
Its been a long, a long time coming.
Its a long long time coming.
and I feel like I’m slipping inside my skin.

I been so lonely, I been going out my mind.
Izzy please tell me, “can you hear me tonight”?
Cause I know now I was wrong,
cause you’ve always been the one.
I just let it all slip through my hands.

Cause it’s been a long, a long time coming.
Its been a long, a long time coming.
Its a long long time coming.
and I feel like I’‘ve finally learnt to just let go.
