Chatting with a friend
Scrolling through Instagram
Drifting off to sleep
The moment is never predictable
And often there's nowhere to hide

When my heart rate starts to quicken
And my brain starts to swirl
When every thought starts to feels like lead
The moment is never predictable
And often there's nowhere to hide

That's why I plan the way I do
That's why I seem so stern
If you wonder why my eyes look burdened
It's because the moment is never predictable
And often there's nowhere to hide

In your arms I find the safety I seek
In your eyes I find my relief
In the times I fall apart next to you
Know it's because I know you're predictable
And you're my place to hide
