Not Right Now

You could see the smoke from a mile away And trouble always draws a crowd They wanna tell me that it'll be okay But that's not what I need right now Not while my house is burning down I know someday I know somehow I'll be okay But not right now Not right now Tell me if the hope that you know is true Ever feels like a lie even from a friend When their words are salt in an open wound And they just can't seem to understand That you haven't even stopped the bleeding yet I know someday I know somehow I'll be okay But not right now No, not right now Don't tell me when I'm grieving That this happened for a reason Maybe one day we'll talk about the dreams that had to die For new ones to come alive But not right now While I wait for the smoke to clear You don't even have to speak Just sit with me in the ashes here And together we can pray for peace To the one acquainted with our grief I know someday I know somehow I'll be okay But not right now Not right now No, not right now
