Mira Housey - Break Season Lyrics

You're 3,000 miles away
And I'm still stuck in California
Said I'll change the world one day
But I can't do that while I mourn ya

They say if you love somebody
Then it's best to let them go
We've been hanging on for dear life
But it's wearing out the rope

And my mother says to have faith
And to leave it up to God
But I think I prefer statistics
I'm just scared to weigh the odds

I took a gamble when I left in fear I'm running out of luck
I once called you forever
But forever called my bluff

And I love LA, but it's the season of the breaks
And I have one shot to make mine count 'fore it's too late
I'm terrified I left the best things all behind to chase
A different life but it's a chance I'll never take if I

Dream each night of some version of you
That I could have had, but I had to choose
Now I'm tire tracks and I'm on my way
You're my other half but that'll have to wait

As you live between your anger and the darkness you can't face
And I live all of mine between these jaded stanzas on a page
It isn't fair to keep you waiting on the promise of "someday"
You'd rather hang in limbo, but I've seen that tether break

And it's the chances we don't take that always end up in resentment
It's the reason I blinked through my tears as I started the engine
I don't mean to bring you sadness, but we're way better than that
I hold you to a standard
Right now, you just hold me back

And I love LA, but it's the season of the breaks
And I have one shot to make mine count 'fore it's too late I'm
Terrified I left the best things all behind to chase
A different life, but it's a chance I'll never take if I

Dream each night of some version of you
That I could have had, but I had to choose
Now I'm tire tracks and already late
You're my other half but that'll have to wait

I know you're looking for the answers I don't have, but
We'll bury our futures if we keep digging up the past
I'm sorry that putting me first meant putting you last
I hope one day you'll understand
That I

Love LA but it's the season of the breaks
And I have one shot to make mine count 'fore it's too late I'm
Terrified I left the best things all behind to chase
A different life but it's a chance I'll never take if I

Dream each night of some version of you
That I could have had, but I had to choose
Now I'm tire tracks and I'm on my way
You're my other half but that'll have to wait
Have to wait
