Ceiling Fan

I used to run around the cul-de-sac
White sneakers and a Sunday dress
Till my neighbor shot it down real quick
If only Julia was an optimist

Now every time I wear my Sunday best
I'm always tryna fit the newest trend
Just to prove that I'm still relevant
Am I relevant?

It's funny how life can make amends
Through all the thick and thin
But in the end, I know
That's just the way it goes, just the way it goes

I used to lie awake all night
Dreamed so high I never stopped falling
Twenty-something, how'd the time fly by?
I hit the ground, I never did notice

Could someone tell me where I lost my stride?
Lost my sight, oh, my soul's been searching
Now I'm staring at a ceiling fan, going through the motions
My parents told me I was good enough

Said I was beautiful the way I was
But sometimes indecision has no end
And you can't help it when you second-guess
Too young to love, too hard to trust

Need to grow up
Now you're 21 and you're asking
Dear, where's your plus one?

It's funny how life can make amends
Through all the thick and thin
But in the end, I know
That's just the way it goes, just the way it goes

I used to lie awake all night
Dreamed so high I never stopped falling
Twenty-something, how'd the time fly by?
I hit the ground, I never did notice

Could someone tell me where I lost my stride?
Lost my sight, oh, my soul's been searching
Now I'm staring at a ceiling fan, going through the motions

Ha, ha, ha, ha (yeah)
Ha, ha (mm)
Ha, ha, ha, ha (yeah)
Ha, ha (mm, mm)

Pick yourself up, get your feet off the ground
This future's too bright for you to sit down
Pick yourself up, get your feet off the ground
This future's too bright for you to sit down

Pick yourself up, get your feet off the ground
This future's too bright for you to sit down
Pick yourself up, get your feet off the ground
This future's too bright for you to sit down
