Taking the Wheel Lyrics > It's Only Life

It's no good, it's too packed
I can't just sing a final song
Say so long and leave it at that.
It's alright, I've got time

So I didn't hitch a ride on the rocket to the top
I'll get there in a steady climb
What did it mean, what have I learned
Crossing the bridges before they're burned
Leading life, instead of being lead

Using my head
What's it about
Did I lose innocence going in, or gain experience coming out
What did it mean, what have I learned
Eating off tables, before they're turned
Living life, instead of playing dead

Throwing down a pencil, grabbing a pen
Taking the wheel, driving again
Throwing down a pencil, writing in ink
This is how I feel, this is what I think
Dreaming again, and making those dreams real
No big deal

I hit my stride
If I'm not breaking the ribbon at the end of the race
It's only because I haven't tried
What did it mean, what have I learned
Taking the credit I know I've earned
Waking up, and flying out of bed

Throwing down a pencil, grabbing a pen
Taking the wheel, driving again
Throwing down a pencil, writing in ink
This is how I feel, this is what I think
Dreaming again, and making those dreams real
Taking the wheel

I've been in a back seat long enough
Tagging along for the ride
I've been in a back seat long enough to know
That you never get what you deserve
If you never can decide
There's only one way to get where you want to go

Throwing down a pencil, grabbing a pen
Taking the wheel, driving again
Throwing down a pencil, writing in ink
This is how I feel, this is what I think
I'm dreaming again, and making those dreams real
Taking the wheel

I've been in a back seat long enough
Tagging along for the ride
I've been in a back seat long enough to know
That you never get what you deserve
If you never can decide
There's only one way to get where you want to go

Throwing down a pencil, grabbing a pen
Taking the wheel, driving again
Throwing down a pencil, writing in ink
This is how I feel, this is what I think
Dreaming again and making those dreams real
Dreaming again and making those dreams real
Dreaming again and making those dreams real
Taking the wheel
