Ready Not Ready

I left a message on your floor
Still eight months since you have called
Awake at night I think to myself
Put it to bed so I can rest

It's getting hard to feel sorry for you
I think your playing a victim
It's not abandonment
When I get pushed away
Your track record has it's history of
Repeating habit through apologies
And I've been running my track for far too long

I can't jump back in with the drop of a dime
I'm not ready yet
I'm not ready yet
What are the odds that we'll ever see eye to eye?
I'm not ready yet
I'm not ready yet
We're only getting older so we'll run out of time
To put things in perspective

You think you're perfect, you wait and see
This life is hard and it's brutal
I did the best I could for what I had

Just tried not be a wilder
Just been bound and cuffed
I'm just trying to guide you
Is it not enough
For myself and my lack of mind?

I can't jump back in with the drop of a dime
I'm not ready yet
I'm not ready yet
What are the odds that we'll ever see eye to eye?
I'm not ready yet
I'm not ready yet
We're only getting older so we'll run out of time
To put things in perspective

Well, I am looking at the picture
Twenty years ago
I'm not that fire that harm
From where you once were

I see the boy in your arms
I see the tables turn
I feel myself in your shoes
I feel there's something I've learned

I can't jump back in with the drop of a dime
I'm not ready yet
I'm not ready yet
What are the odds that we'll ever see eye to eye?
I'm not ready yet
Still not ready yet
We're only getting older so we'll run out of time
To put things in perspective

In perspective
