The Sight of Celebration versuri

The Sight of Celebration lyrics by Tarquin Alexandra

Verse 1
Another first
Another hand I didn’t have to grasp the sand that slipped through
Another breath, another day
I wait appreciating

Refrain
What you wish was better
Walk right over it
I’ll retrace your footprints in the soot
I’ll do better

Chorus
I’ve retraced my every move
And I come to the same conclusion
I’ve memorized every groove
Where I get stuck, where I keep losing
The blame I place on my setbacks
But you’re the same and you keep moving
Everything you counteract
I guess I missed the pick and choosing

Verse 2
Another bone, another ache
I couldn’t bear the sight of celebration
Another dream, another day
I wait appreciating

Refrain
What you wish was better
Walk right over it
I’ll retrace your footprints in the soot
I’ll do better

Chorus
I’ve retraced my every move
And I come to the same conclusion
I’ve memorized every groove
Where I get stuck, where I keep losing
The blame I place on my setbacks
But you’re the same and you keep moving
Everything you counteract
I guess I missed the pick and choosing

Outro
Life is what you make of it
Isn’t it? Isn’t it?
I made a mistake of it
Following the syllabus
Every bone to break, I’ve broken
Emulating star-crossed slogans
Every effort paid, reversed
Maybe I’m cursed
