Not Small, Just Far Away - Spearmint

Are you looking round endlessly

Trying to make any sense of it

Trying to get to the heart of it

Looking back at the things you’ve done

Looking out at the world outside

Looking in at the man you are

Think how long you might last

Think of the things you want to do

Your days are spread in front of you

So many possibilities

So many paths you could choose

What are you going to do?

Are you looking round endlessly

For an answer to it all

Always trying to find something

That gives meaning to it all

I’m so scared of messing up

I’m so scared of growing up

That I end up giving up

I never ever really knew

What it is I want to do

So I just muddle through

They all know what they want to do

And they’re doing better than you

And they are all so confident

And they are always doing great

And they are all so sorted out

And I’d like to wipe them out

Are you looking round endlessly

For an answer to it all

Waiting for the part that means

Something, oh, something

Bring a child into this world

To witness all the pain to come

To live with all the things we’ve done

Share the terror that awaits

Fix mistakes we have made

Solve the problems we have caused

I don’t feel small just far away

I’m waiting for my calling

But it never seems to come…

Are you looking round endlessly?

Are you looking round endlessly

For an answer to it all

Always trying to find something

That gives meaning to it all

Are you looking round endlessly

To find an answer to it all

Waiting for the part that means something, oh, something
