Tom Sless - Ready To Lyrics

Woke up in a basement stressed
Still reeking of booze and cigarettes
Pounding in my head
When did I become a silhouette
In the mirror staring back at me
Transparent like the ghost of everything
I gave up so easily
And now that guilt is killing me
But I got a beating heart
And I never wanna run away from shooting stars
Or be too cool for smoky bars
Just needed time to find my center
After all I've been through
I'm finally ready to
On the stage in an empty bar
Five dollars in change in the money jar
Therapy with this guitar
And the remedy's the melody
Lookin up there's a friendly face
Sugar sweet like lonely lemonade
In her eyes I could see a trace
Of a dying dream but I believe that a beating heart
Shouldn't ever wanna run away from shooting stars
Or be too cool for smoky bars
Just needed time to find my center
After all I've been through
I'm finally ready to
I'm finally ready to
Ready to
The best time
To plant a tree
Is twenty years ago
But the second best time
Is startin' today
It's not too late, I would know
Oh oh ohhh
I wish that I had started sooner
But since I can't change the past
I might as well change the future
I needed time
After all I've been through
I'm finally ready to
