"Old" song inspiration


These aren't new lyrics. I wrote this song about two years ago. After listening to John Mayer's "In Your Atmosphere" I was immensely inspired. This is the product of that inspiration mixed with my feelings at the time- feelings that I relate to right now.

One Day

I've been, I've been wondering
if all I'll, all I'll ever have
is already here waiting to surpass
Am I over thinking it?

I get lost, get lost and thrown away
with my own opportunity
Can't waste another minute stuck inside this room
I'll get out of here soon

One day I'll get out of here
in one piece, I need my peace
And I'll say that I loved you, dear
But I need, I need my space

There are, there are many times
where I feel I could have rolled the dice
I'm just so indecisive, it kills me inside
I've got to get out of this life

One day I'll get out of here
in one piece, I need my peace
And I'll say that I loved you, dear
But I need, I need my space

Give me my space

I've decided that it's time for me to go
And you're compliant so I will let you know that

I've thought about it many times
And I decided that I'd roll that dice
It landed on a two, that's why I'm here with you
You should know that you should have known

One day I'll get out of here
in one piece, I need my peace
And I'll say that I loved you, baby
But I need, I need my space

Give me my space

I'll pack my bags and go
I will, I will
I'll pack my bags and go
I said I'll pack my bags and go
