Max Weigert - Thermostat Lyrics

Before I could control the thermostat with my phone
Before I could ask Alexa and know the weather without leaving home
I would take each day as it came, no matter what would come my way
But now I need to control things
Used to accept a change with open hands
But now I can barely handle a change in weekend plans
So I think it's time I went outside no matter the weather, rain or shine
It's time to sit back and see what life brings
Cause the more you try and plan it all out
Yeah, the more you set yourself up to be let down
Cause the only thing you can predict
Is that nothing in life is for certain
I'm gonna live my life and do my best
To learn to let go of the rest
Now I'm not saying to just settle for what you got
But that trying to control things backfires more than not
So instead I'll focus on the positive, stop looking for the flaws to fix
I don't want to have to control things
Cause the more you try and plan it all out
Yeah, the more you set yourself up to be let down
Cause the only thing you can predict
Is that nothing in life is for certain
I'm gonna live my life and do my best
To learn to let go
It's never gonna be perfect
It's never gonna be just right
And letting go of expectations might just be
How I find a little peace of mind
Cause the more you try and plan it all out
Yeah, the more you set yourself up to be let down
Cause the only thing you can predict
Is that nothing in life is for certain
I'm gonna live my life and do my best
To learn to let go of the rest
