Count The Stars – Understanding lyrics

do you take advantage of your time cuz you only live once
do you ever analyze your life and find empty spaces
and every now and then it seems like im always sinking
and every now and then you feel like youre never living

what was it that made you think that i could just sit and take this
what was it that made you think this is understanding

theres something in this air tonight and im lost for you to find
maybe its for the best to say goodnight

do you ever wake up in the night and wonder why youre alone
do you pay attention to your friends tell me why you listen
and every now and then it seems like im always waiting
and every now and then you feel there is no escaping

what was it that made you think that i could just sit and take this
what was it that made you think this is understanding

theres something in this air tonight and i am lost for you to find
maybe its for the best to say goodnight
the broken peices left in me broken up from everything scatter away
can you just say goodnight

and im still searching for that something we all look for
you now wait for
im still searching for that something we all look for

theres something in this air tonight and i am lost for you to find
maybe its for the best to say goodnight
the broken peices left in me broken up from everything scatter away
can you just say goodnight

how could you think for yourself at times like this
was it me or my inttentions that you miss
take them out of me and save them for yourself
