You talking to me like we can't choose
To live in the moment I refuse
To stop trying to own it, like you always do
I try, I wanna stay young, but it's old news
Leave me alone in the rearview, I reminisce
Will you notice me now

Try to cut corners, try to fast-forward
Try to get by preoccupied, you're making life shorter
So why are you acting, always distracted
Thought we were fine, that you were mine or did I imagine?

Why can't we get it in the open
Why can't you be here in the moment
You love to give up, but I keep hoping
You see me here, see me now

You are looking for something to redo
Nobody thinks more than we do
Too many options to look through
But I see you here

Try to cut corners, try to fast-forward
Try to get by preoccupied, you're making life shorter
So why are you acting, always distracted
Thought we were fine, that you were mine, or did I imagine?

Why can't we get it in the open
Why can't you be here in the moment
You love to give up, but I keep hoping
You see me here, see me now

Why can't we get it in the open
Why can't you be here in the moment
I'm trying not to give up, yeah, I keep hoping
You see me here, see me now

Why can't we get it in the open
Why can't you be here in the moment
I'm trying not to give up, yeah, I keep hoping

Why can't we get it in the open
Why can't you be here in the moment
You love to give up, but I keep hoping
See me here, see me now

Why can't we get it in the open
Why can't you be here in the moment
I'm trying not to give up, yeah, I keep hoping
You see me here, see me now
