Present Tense

Do you see the way that tree bends?

Does it inspire?

Leaning out to catch the sun's rays

A lesson to be applied

Are you getting something out of this all-encompassing trip?

You can spend your time alone redigesting past regrets, oh

Or you can come to terms and realize

You're the only one who can't forgive yourself, oh

Makes much more sense to live in the present tense

Have you ideas on how this life ends?

Checked your hands and studied the lines?

Have you ever believed that the road ahead

Ascends off into the light?

Seems that needlessly it's getting harder

To find an approach and a way to live

Are we getting something out of this all-encompassing trip?

You can spend your time alone redigesting past regrets, oh

Or you can come to terms and realize

You're the only one who cannot forgive yourself, oh

Makes much more sense to live in the present tense
