In Our Own Time. - Aidan Pohl & 6TH STREET

I received an invitation; 'Come to the United Nations.' That was when I was somebody. In my own time. Sitting selling hot cross buns, Thousand suckers ev'ryone. Sounds like a nurs'ry rhyme. In my own time. Even when the lights go out. Still got things to think about. Memories I can't call mine. In my own time. My own time. My own time.

When you look away In the sea You see the sea in the sky While she swims You want to go To their feast You cannot reach them You don't fit in this twist There 's no place for us there, darling Though we 're here by the sea Let me join my eyes to yours now, baby And build our own dream

You were right when you said I would want it all someday You probably knew that you were and I can just hear you say With a sarcastic "whoah" and an "I'm always right" yeah I know And I'll admit I get excited and I act on impulse It's a habit that I have but it's not bad for improv So take into account when you're calling me out That you like it sometimes We both knew this could end We came pretty damn close to it You say you drive me mad so I drive you home And then you fly back again And we weren't wrong to say we promise we both Were just so young there was no that we could know Our pockets will be with each other's change And I won't spend it I would rather go broke And keep my soul there's so much more I want that gold Cause those chains got nothing on the way you say "You lack in common sense, You've blind advantages I don't know Guess you're just lucky, boy" Boy I get a new favorite character every time that you Impersonate a disney film or kid's cartoon Now olaf and louise sound less like themselves They're more you for me I'm growing out of growing out of things like shoes and finding Telling moms and other loved ones that you care a sign of Being weak or afraid I hate the concept of time Hate from the moment you stayed we both We both knew this could end We came pretty damn close to it You say you drive me mad so I drive you home And then you fly back again And we weren't wrong to say we promise we both Were just so young there was no that we could know Our pockets will be with each other's change And I won't spend it I would rather go broke And keep my soul there's so much more I want that gold Cause those chains got nothing on the way you say "You lack in common sense, You've blind advantages I don't know Guess you're just lucky" I've been called modest for taking honesty over wordplay It's well it's it's honestly Honesty's the only play I have to work with I'm bad at being nice to you Even worse at just believing But I'm taking strides to find inside me Just a better human being Look, I know that I have room to grow I'm naive, short-sighted, weak, unknown Blind past just my eyesight Still wondering how I'll pay off loans Financially I'm breaking School's probably not the move right now You said that from the start It's another thing you're right about But I'm plenty rich in other ways Like a passion and a talent And the same friend group since pre-k I'll probably never understand just how Ridiculously lucky I am To have the family I was randomly dropped in And that's where you come in On top of everything that I was already content with It just so happens that you're an actor of the same age Same grade same school and absolutely beautiful That's all minus the specifics The shows and the sheeps and the pigs and the chickens There's a lot more behind it But that story's really long If you really wanna hear it It's in all my other songs I'm sad with confidence I'm blind but managing I'm just a lucky Boy
