[Verse 1]
I think I need to explain
The mistakes that I made:
I spent so long pushing
When we weren't looking it changed
So how was your day?
I know it’s been so strange
While I was reaching for stars
I was dropping your heart all over again
[Pre-Chorus]
It's a hard hand to hold
When you're letting go
[Chorus]
I wasn’t ready for the red light
Coming on
I wasn't ready for the right life
Going wrong
Wasn't ready for the tightrope swinging
My life boat sinking, no
I never noticed all the good things going on
I only saw that you were here once you were gone
Wasn't ready for the whole world spinning
Don't feel like winning at all
[Verse 2]
They never teach you the fall
When they're building you up
When it starts to rain
There's nothing to save you from the flood
[Pre-Chorus]
It's a hard hand to hold
But now that you’re gone
[Chorus]
I wasn’t ready for the red light
Coming on
I wasn't ready for the right life
Going wrong
Wasn’t ready for the tightrope swinging
My life boat sinking, no
I never noticed all the good things going on
I only saw that you were here once you were gone
Wasn't ready for the whole world spinning
Don't feel like winning at all
[Hook]
I wasn't ready
I wasn’t ready
[Chorus]
I wasn't ready for the red light
Coming on
I wasn't ready for the right life
Going wrong
Wasn't ready for the tightrope swinging
My life boat sinking, no
I never noticed all the good things going on
I only saw that you were here once you were gone
Wasn't ready for the whole world spinning
Don't feel like winning at all
[Hook]
I wasn't ready
I wasn't ready
I wasn't ready
I wasn't ready
[Bridge]
And I'm sorry
That I let it in
And that I let you down
[Outro]
I wasn't ready for the red light
Coming on
I wasn't ready for the right life
Going wrong
Wasn't ready for the tightrope swinging
My life boat sinking, no
