Testo The Second Act - Missy Higgins

The Second Act

I think I’m ready for whatever comes next
How long can I scold myself for flunking the biggest test
I think I’m ready for the turning of the wheel
Find fresh waters for these old wounds to heal
All that it took to try to succeed
Then when I failed, what it took from me
But it’s intermission, life’s calling me back
I think I’m ready for the second act
I think I’m ready for the story to change
Don’t know what I believe anymore, maybe that’s OK
I think I’m ready to forgive myself
Nobody knows what they’re doing they’re just acting well
All that it took to try to succeed
Then when I failed, what it took from me
But it’s intermission, life’s calling me back
I think I’m ready for the second act
All that it takes, to do what we must
Then when we fail, what it takes from us
But it’s intermission, life’s calling us back
I think we’re ready for the second act
Hey are we ready for the second act?
