It Was Coming All Along

Everybody's going crazy See 'em walking down the street And I feel like a deer in headlights When I turn on the TV And I keep wandering 'round my living room Just wondering how we're gonna survive See the light stream in the window Call my mother on the phone Said there's talkin' in the kitchen Of selling my childhood home And everywhere I look around It seems we're always saying goodbye And I don't know just what to do I'm fine, but feel I'm breaking through My world's a honey shade of blue I'm crying, wish I wasn't hanging on But it was coming all along It was coming all along Know I might sound existential This is the first time that we meet But I swear there's some potential In the actuality And I'm trying to be brave these days But, oh, I've still got Norah on the phone (Um, hello) (How are you?) And she's saying, "Hold your temper Hey there, Maggie, slow your roll" "And I know that you still hate him The way he hurt you back at school" And though it's dark out in the distance It's looking like there might be a new soul And I don't know just what to do I'm fine, but feel I'm breaking through My world's a honey shade of blue I'm crying, wish I wasn't hanging on But I know it won't last for long So fast, it's fading out of view I'm flying long past twenty-two So high, can't find the moment it went wrong But it was coming all along (I'm fine, but feel I'm breaking through) It was coming all along (My world's a honey shade of blue) It was coming all along (But I know it won't last for long) It was coming all along But it was coming all along
