Skip Ahead

Feels like it's been a thousand years
Of fighting through a million tears
It's all we know
We're climbing on an uphill road
We still got miles and miles to go
Yeah, it's all we know

They say that time is on our side
So why does it feel like the enemy?

Can we skip ahead to all the good parts?
How we pictured it before it got hard
'Cause I'm tired of the trouble, I'm tired of the pain
I'm tired of the waiting game
Can we skip ahead?
Can we skip ahead?
Can we skip ahead?

Sometimes I see the light at the end
And then another, "No, not yet"
'Cause the war ain't won (Mm)
I try to smile, give happiness
To all my friends that get there, yes
And my time will come

Can we skip ahead to all the good parts?
How we pictured it before it got hard
'Cause I'm tired of the trouble, I'm tired of the pain
I'm tired of the waiting game
Can we skip ahead?
Can we skip ahead?
Can we skip ahead?

From the past to the love
To the life we dreamt of
To the day we rest our head
To the top of the hill
To the peace that we'll feel
When we finally catch our breath

Can we skip ahead to all the good parts?
How we pictured it before it got hard
'Cause I'm tired of the trouble, I'm tired of the pain
I'm tired of the waiting game
Can we skip ahead?
Can we skip ahead?
Can we skip ahead?

Can we skip ahead?
