It's For the Best

[Verse 1: John Nolan] And it takes more time than I've ever had Drains the life from me Makes me want to forget As young as I was, I felt older back then More disciplined, stronger and certain [Chorus: John Nolan & Nate Ruess] But I was scared to death of eternity I was saved by grace But destroyed by naivety And I lied to myself And said it was for the best [Verse 2: John Nolan] So now faith is replaced with a logic so cold I've disregarded what I was Now that I'm older And I know much more than I did back then But the more I learn The more I can't understand [Chorus: John Nolan & Nate Ruess] And I've become content with this life that I lead Where I drink too much and don't believe in much of anything And I lied to myself And said "it's for the best." [Outro: Nate Ruess] We're moving forward, but holding ourselves back And we're waiting on something that will never come

Verso 1: Se necesita mas tiempo del que hayamos tenido Drena mi vida Me hace querer olvidar Tan joven como era, me sentí mas viejo en ese entonces Mas disciplinado, mas fuerte y certero Coro: Pero tenia miedo de la eternidad de la muerte Fui salvado por la gracia Pero destruido por la ingeniudad Y me menti Y dije que era para lo mejor Verso 2: Ahora la fe es reemplazada con una lógica tan fría He ignorado lo que era Ahora que soy mas viejo Y se mucho mas de lo que sabia en ese entonces Pero mientras mas aprendo Mas no puedo entender Coro: Y me he contentado con esta vida que guio Donde bebo mucho y no creo en mucho de nada Y me menti Y dije que es para lo mejor Salida: Nos movemos hacia adelante, pero aguantándonos Y estamos esperando en algo que nunca vendrá
