All That It Ever Was - Turnover

Take what you've got

Give it away

Nothing belonged to you in the first place

If they're all us

And we're all them

Then it's like trading between your own hands

I thought I had it figured out

One day it all went missing

I spent the night stuck wide awake

My thoughts all so dissonant

Started thinking maybe I was living wrong

I took my head off for the night

Didn't want to believe it

I started spending more time being mindful of my breathing

Sleeping on the floor and feeling so withdrawn

Take what you've got

Give it away

Nothing belonged to you in the first place

If they're all us

And we're all them

Then it's like trading between your own hands

Since I was young I have been told

How I should measure success

Work hard and

You can have a life of luxury and excess

I was walking by when I tripped and fell

Maybe it doesn't matter

If I give you all you give me

I'm wondering

If those are both different parts of one thing

Maybe now it's all that it ever was

You and me thinking it's us and them

Can you see that all the difference is pretend

You always get higher with someone else

Than if you try to climb up all by yourself

Take what you've got

Give it away

Nothing belonged to you in the first place

If they're all us

And we're all them

Then it's like trading between your own hands
