Jessica O'Neill - Little Rituals Lyrics

Well I don't know where I'm going
I can't help but pull the reigns
Cause I know that someday soon
All of this is going to change

And when I, I go to bed at night
I hide under my sheets
Cause the winds rapping my window
Whispering songs of change to me

Oh I feel it in my bones
That I won't be here for long
I'll be heading down the line
If I could just finish my songs

So I'll just sit and wait here
And I'll gently pass the time
Playing melodies and heartbreak tunes
That aren't even mine

I can't throw my days away
Sitting round and kicking stones
If want to make it far
Gotta make it there alone

And some day I'll be livin large
Far from here but for now
Little rituals I can't escape
Seem to tie me down


So I'll wander round in circles
Footsteps leading me back home
Guess that's what everybody says
Not to fix what isn't broke

And I'm still waiting on some miracle
To take me by the hand
But this life won't last forever
Got to make it while I can

Weekend jobs and late night bars
Is easy getting by
Told myself I'll take it easy
Until it's the right time

But the right time never comes
And tomorrows not today
I'd be a million miles ahead
If I'd get out of my own way


I can't throw my days away
Sitting round and kicking stones
If want to make it far
Gotta make it there alone

And some day I'll be livin large
Far from here but for now
Little rituals I can't escape
Seem to tie me down
