Change Lyrics & Chords By Ari Goldwag

Am I that predictable, is this all I'll ever be
The words I say, the things I feel, all seem to define me
But aren't we just reading from a script, we, ourselves wrote
From there we seem to quote, it's true

When I am acting as myself, and playing out my role
The one thing I must recognize is a lack of depth and soul
Why doesn't that bird ask itself, 'Why should I build this nest'
Before it builds the rest, it's true

Chorus:
And through the ocean mist I can discern who I will be
Carried by the waves of what's become my history
And are we really living if we can't change
If we are merely products of ourselves
There's got to be a better way

The strongest winds are on the sea of tranquility
The captain of the little ship tries to guide her faithfully
The choices that he makes can't be the choices he'd just make
But the choices he must make, it's true

The winds all seem much stronger as I sense this truth inside
But there's a little secret that can calm this bumpy ride
The paradox is that the more I start to accept
The higher I'll connect, it's true

Chorus

We can find the strength inside to chart a brand new course
We can find the bravery to weather all the storms
No matter what we're feeling, we can change
We can make something of ourselves
Deep inside, we can find a better way
