๐ Lyrics
I've been tasting something different in the air
And it draws me to open waters
Treading across the sea, I'll only fall if I'm afraid to stand
But I'm not afraid of falling
I've been trying to reset the hourglass
But all I did was make the sand flow faster
How long will we chase the dreams that try to catch up to us?
I can always hear them calling
So don't run away, come closer
No, stay far away, I cannot hold you
I can only keep the things I need
And if I have a choice, I won't choose what I want
I won't choose, but I can't decide
All these confusing images of what life should look like
Are just illusions
They are just illusions that mean so much to me
We're still young enough to grow
Still fighting our inner wars
You stayed behind to feed the fires that consume our souls
They're so cold to the touch, it gives me vertigo
I know what you think of me
Know what you wanted us to be
We are windswept, we are windswept
And nothing more
You can feel the vastness up in the mountains
As the whole world opens up
Trapped with the thoughts that gang up on me
I'm worried that I won't think enough
When the truth makes me lie to myself
I'll never forget why I came here
But I've forgotten why I stay
If I'll be blinded by the light, I'd still choose not to look away
I will never go astray, I cannot break away
So don't run away, come closer
No, stay far away, I cannot hold you
I can only keep the things I need
And if I have a choice, I won't choose what I want
I won't choose, but I can't decide
All these confusing images of what life should look like
Are just illusions
They are just illusions that mean so much to me
We're still young enough to grow
Still fighting our inner wars
You stayed behind to feed the fires that consume our souls
They're so cold to the touch, it gives me vertigo
I know what you think of me
Know what you wanted us to be
We are windswept, we are windswept
The ghosts that live through me
The hopes that speak through me
Are letting out a shout with my own voice
But it's growing rough and hoarse
This place is small, but we are smaller
There is always something smaller
It takes the sense out of feeling bigger
Outside of these walls
And everything is so beautiful
I almost have to look away
It doesn't feel as heavy inside
As the sky is painted grey
And everything is so beautiful
I almost have to look away
It doesn't feel as heavy inside
As the sky is painted grey
And it means so much to me
We're still young enough to grow
Still fighting our inner wars
You stayed behind to feed the fires that consume our souls
They're so cold to the touch, it gives me vertigo
I know what you think of me
Know what you wanted us to be
We are windswept, we are windswept
And nothing more
And everything is so beautiful
I almost have to look away
Everything is so beautiful
I almost have to look away
And it draws me to open waters
Treading across the sea, I'll only fall if I'm afraid to stand
But I'm not afraid of falling
I've been trying to reset the hourglass
But all I did was make the sand flow faster
How long will we chase the dreams that try to catch up to us?
I can always hear them calling
So don't run away, come closer
No, stay far away, I cannot hold you
I can only keep the things I need
And if I have a choice, I won't choose what I want
I won't choose, but I can't decide
All these confusing images of what life should look like
Are just illusions
They are just illusions that mean so much to me
We're still young enough to grow
Still fighting our inner wars
You stayed behind to feed the fires that consume our souls
They're so cold to the touch, it gives me vertigo
I know what you think of me

Everything is so beautiful
I almost have to look away
