lyrics

You can fix anything with a little tape
And it's just fine but you can see it won't stay that way
It'll all feel better, but only for a moment
When you need somewhere new but you don't know where you're going
If I have learned anything, it's these things run out like time
What used to be the world to me is now only alright
I used to love every cheerful nonsense conversation
Ended up in the middle of nowhere, forgot what I was chasing

Chorus:
Should I find something foolproof?
'Cause I heard I'm supposed to have
Something that never fails to make me smile, to make me laugh
But every joke gets old and every song loses its meaning
So I don't know how
To find something that's truly good, not just good enough for now

I think of perfect solutions, but they stay imaginary
This way, I won't find out that they're all just temporary
"If only"s are often sweeter than they are bitter
I'm cold, but if I tried to build a fire I'd gain nothing but splinters

Repeat Chorus

For now, for now...

For now, it's incredible
For now, it's precious
For now, it's ineffable
But it's so precarious
So hold on tight and don't close your eyes until it's over
Till the paint chips, so even the memory is drained of all its color

Repeat Chorus
