Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day
You fritter and waste the hours in an off-hand way

Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town
Waiting for someone or something to show you the way

Tired of lying in the sunshine, staying home to watch the rain
And you are young and life is long, and there is time to kill today

And then one day you find ten years have got behind you
No one told you when to run, you missed the starting gun

I think this is super true. We moved across the pond and are learning a new language, new culture, everything. Time feels SO slow. This year has been a decade.

It's been hard, but also that part has been cool and a good reminder that it doesn't always have to be that way
