about

I think we’ve all wasted considerable amounts of time in our lives. A lot of this time can be chalked up to learning, but a good deal is spent on “as good as it gets” syndrome: staying in a job or relationship (or band) because you can’t imagine a better version of yourself or your life. What’s more is the shame that goes along with this condition–we want to believe we’re in control and admitting that we, in fact, have minimal power over our trajectory is grossly unsettling. Conversely, accepting our lack of control can be freeing. Letting go of fear (or facing it) makes taking risks easier and opens us up for new possibilities. Never accept “as good as it gets.” If you think you’re in control, think again.

lyrics

Wait – wait for the right time
You’ve been waiting all your life
And the right time never comes

They say this is as good as it gets
So you stop looking
And life passes you by
Life passes you by

So you’re marching to the rhythm
And you’re keeping the beat
But who’s playing the drum?

Now you’re out there on your own
Without the nagging voices
Telling you where to go
Where to go

[Solo]

Wait – wait for the right time
You’ve been waiting all your life
And the right time never comes

They say this is as good as it gets
So you stop looking
And life passes you by
Life passes you by
