What Would I Change It To
Avicii Lyrics

Steady yourself even though you know that you're falling
Despite feeling like you're losing control, hold on and persevere.

Maybe you're falling but you're still alive
Failing doesn't define you, remember you're still alive and can try again.

Ready yourself, that's quite enough of your bawling
Stop feeling sorry for yourself and get ready to face your struggles head-on.

'Cause baby you're bawling but you'll survive
The pain you're feeling is only temporary, and you will overcome it.

And losing is only a sign
Losing is not a failure, but a sign that you've tried and learned.

It's only a sign that you really tried, really tried
Trying your best, even if it leads to failure, shows your commitment to growth.

Forever trading places with the same old me
Always striving to improve but struggling with self-doubt and criticism.

I'm racking up the cases of who I failed to be
Keeping track of every instance where you feel like you've let yourself down.

Why would I replace the sky?
Questioning the need to change something already perfect and untouched.

Why would I recreate that perfect blue?
Why change something that is inherently perfect and cannot be improved upon?

What would I change it to?
Asking for guidance and direction to identify what truly needs to change in oneself.

You can copy and paste your head on a new body
Changing your outer appearance won't fix the inner struggles you face.

But that new body's still made of flesh
No matter what you change on the surface, you're still fundamentally the same person.

And cutting corners gets you where you're going
Shortcuts and quick fixes may work in the short-term, but long-term growth requires effort.

But how you get there is the real test
The journey towards improvement and growth is more important than the destination.
