The Second Act Lyrics


Missy Higgins The Second Act

[Verse 1]
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

[Chorus]
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
[Verse 2]
I think I'm ready for the story to change
Don't know what I believe anymore, but maybe that's okay
I think l'm ready to forgive myself
Nobody knows what they're doing, they're just acting well

[Chorus]
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

[Bridge]
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh

[Chorus]
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?
