Passing Through Cant the Future Just Wait
Kaden MacKay
[Verse 1]
Can’t the future just wait?
Can’t the deadlines come fashionably late?

I could push every goal back
Take control back
If they’d roll back the rate

At which time starts to fly
Never landing or standing by
Never taking a break
Ever making me retry

We “nickel-and-dime” every “quarter to two”
But maybe it’s time to let time pass through

[Verse 2]
If the future is bright
It doesn’t shine with that “end of the tunnel” light

More like a deer in the hеadlights
Sudden red lights
Or “you’re dеad” lights as the anglerfish bite
It’s not fair
The past is clear, but it’s clear back there
What’s ahead, no one knows
But it’s closing in, we swear

Still not in my prime, I have so much to do
But maybe it’s time to let time pass through

[Bridge]
I can’t just rewrite decisions when life gets strange
Should I go with my gut
On which door
I should shut?
I’m unsure;
I’d keep exploring this rut
But what good is time without change?

(Instrumental)

Move on
‘Cause things never last
Just move on
‘Cause it goes too fast, and the past has passed
So move on

No one likes an ending
So what’s with the attention we keep on giving them?
Why are we still spending so much time dreading our lives, instead of living them?
Why do we try to divert the river
When the water is what will deliver us
Where we need to go?

[Verse 3]
We may never know why
Time is always in limited supply

But we’ll live to regret it
If we get it
And then let it slip by

It can never rewind
Once you’ve lost it, it’s hard to find;
Take the journey in stride
When your plans have been sidelined

Every hourly chime could begin something new
So maybe it’s time to let time pass through

[Outro]
Not passing by
But passing through
Till the well runs dry
Just passing through
