Losing Patience
Navigating Uncertainty: Comeback Kid's Anthem on Patience and Resilience
Lyrics
I was looking forward to this day for so long
I had been anticipating this day for a significant duration.
I had it all planned out
I had meticulously planned for it.
I was hoping it'd all work out
I was hopeful that everything would unfold as planned.
I was losing patience
I started to run out of patience.
You know it's never been my best trait
Impatience has not been one of my strengths.
Counting minutes, hours, counting days
I was constantly counting minutes, hours, and days.
Then it dawned on me
A realization struck me.
Unpredictabilty
Life's unpredictability became apparent.
I told myself everything's just fine
I reassured myself that everything was fine.
You worry too much, it's gonna eat you alive
I acknowledged my tendency to worry excessively.
I was looking forward to this day for so long
Reiteration of the anticipation for the day.
I had it all planned out
Reiteration of the detailed planning.
I was hoping it'd all work out
Reiteration of the hope for a positive outcome.
Will it all work out
Doubt arises regarding the success of the plan.
Now I feel exposed
A feeling of vulnerability surfaces.
Like a black light on the wall in a darkened room
Similar to a revealing black light, hidden aspects become visible.
All the dirt appears
Exposed flaws and imperfections emerge.
You can see my fears
Fears become apparent for others to see.
I don't want to let my guard down
Reluctance to drop one's guard and reveal true emotions.
You know I never had the feeling
A lack of expectation that someone would exploit vulnerabilities.
That you would prey on my insecurities
A realization that insecurities are being targeted.
You know I never had the feeling
Reiteration of the unexpected exploitation of insecurities.
That you would prey on these insecurities I have
Reiteration of the surprise regarding the exploitation of insecurities.
Why is this wait taking so long
Expressing frustration over the prolonged wait.
Counting minutes, hours, counting days
Continued counting of time, emphasizing impatience.
I'm losing patience
The impatience intensifies.
Don't think this means I'm walking away
Clarification that impatience doesn't equate to giving up.
I won't let fear get the best of me
Determination not to let fear control actions.
Now it's up to me
The responsibility and control shift to the individual.
I wouldn't change a thing
Acceptance of the situation without regrets.
(Don't think this means I'm walking away)
Reiteration of not giving up despite impatience.
