mia stegner - forget the sky lyrics

Loading...

i want to move to the city and dye my hair blue, get a couple small tattoos
i want to stay here and have six kids, buy a lifetime of sticky notes and glue
i want to travel the world with my hair in pig tails, get good at taking pictures and painting my nails

i can’t do it all, and that makes me feel small
i can’t pick just one. this is my life
the limit is beyond the sun, so forget the sky

i want to spend my weekends on a couch with my laptop
blasting music with my hair in a bun, getting work done
or sitting with a book on the beach in the sun
cooking in the kitchen with my spouse with my hair in braids
playing with my kids, working from home, getting paid
at a set with my hair curled, being happy, being free
making things that i’m proud of, things that people will see

i can’t do it all, and that makes me feel small
i can’t pick just one. this is my life
the limit is beyond the sun, so forget the sky

i want to live with several roommates in a small place in la
or rent a studio apartment in new york, who can say?
i want a house with picket fences, overlooking gr-ssy plains;
i want a house with gl-ss walls on a cliff, overlooking crashing waves

i can’t do it all, and that makes me feel small
i can’t pick just one. this is my life
the limit is beyond the sun, so forget the sky

i want to meet an artsy introvert
an extroverted charming chap
do i have to fall in love at all?
can i please just be left alone with my seven cats

i want to wear crop tops and gl-sses; winged eyeliner and skirts;
boots and hoodies please, and the same old sweatshirt;
jean shorts, colored tights, sungl-sses when the lights are too bright

a screenwriter, a filmmaker, an activist;
a journalist, a novelist, a mom
i’ll be a broadway singer; i’ll forever stay a teenager

i’ll major in comedic arts, gender studies, math
when i think of my future, i imagine these paths
i -ssume everything will happen, but time is slipping way too fast

it’s time to decide on a person to be, find this thing, i call p-ssion, this thing i call me
some say i don’t have to make a choice, but inside my head there’s this little voice
whispering: if you don’t, you will be nowhere in ten years

when and how will i die? who will be there? will they cry?
what will i take with me? what will i leave behind?
i can’t do it all, and that makes me feel small

we don’t know if we can follow through
but we know what we have to do:
live in the question, and not in our minds;
keep taking steps and see what we find;
be in the moment and not in our heads;
take one step after another, keep getting out of bed;
spend time in the day, and not in our thoughts;
befriend the fears, that we once fought

i want to move to the city and dye my hair blue, get a couple small tattoos
i want to stay here and have six kids, buy a lifetime of sticky notes and glue
i want to travel the world with my hair in pig tails, get good at taking pictures and painting my nails
