"Standstill" lyrics

"Standstill"

Walking on a tightrope
High on all this false hope
Through a foggy window
I can see myself

She says slow and steady
If you were there already
You might keep forgetting
Good things just take time

Cause I am at a standstill
Maybe I should stand still
When I'm moving fast again and halfway up the hill
I'll be wishing I could stand still

Hate to even ask it
Has love lost its magic?
Sitting here in traffic
Wishing we were somewhere else

But I'd rather be with you
Than pretending I don't miss you
Can we just see this through?
Give it one more try

'Cause we are at standstill
Maybe we should stand still
I'm scared it's gonna end but then again everything will
So baby let's just stand still

Standing on the sidelines as people pass you by
Smiling in the fast lane
They seem so secure but I'm pretty sure
At some point they felt the same

So don't you even sweat it
Everyone's just guessing
It's one of life's great lessons
To just enjoy the ride

So if you're at a standstill
It's okay to stand still
You don't have to gain the world to say that you're fulfilled
No you just have to stand still
