We've spent a lifetime running away, Cold feet on cobblestone at the break of day, I still remember everything, The way we laughed in front of a store closing,
We're finding a way to move along without you, and we do it, Finding a way to move along without you, and we do this to ourselves,
I think it's safe to say you were right, Come back to your place, yeah, I think I just might, I still remember everything, Every mistake and every apology,
We're finding a way to move along without you, and we do it, Finding a way to move along without you, and we do this to ourselves,
And the words above this page, are falling into place, One down, three to go, And my eyes are turned away, smile starts to fade, And I know that I'm alone,
We're finding a way to move along without you, and we do it, Finding a way to move along without you, and we do this to ourselves, And we do this to ourselves,
Every single time, I see you in the street as you walk by, You're shuffling your feet as if to say, you'd rather die, Then live so far from home, I wonder is that why you're so alone, And if you found a place to call you own, would you be fine?
And you tell me that something good is bound to happen soon, And meanwhile you'll just wait inside your room,
Do you find it odd, That you are not as strong as you once thought?
And even if you run you might get caught, so you won't go, And you'll be the last to know,
And even if you run you might get caught, so you won't go, And you'll be the last to know,
I'm too far down this time, I've crossed that line too many times, So leave me behind, I'll let my failures speak, For itself, I'm weak and always tired, It's time to retire,
But I've seen the way you come and go, you're like a ghost, Only when everyone's away do you come close, And I saw you leave a shadow there, And I couldn't but help and stare, And wonder is there something in the air?
I felt that salty breeze, When you said to me, "Show me the world I'll see the world," And I'm starting to feel like you, So I'll say it too, "Show me the world, I'll see the world,"
And I saw you fall into the sand beneath the trees, And I saw you sitting up and staring at your knees, And I saw the waves arrive in pairs, through the sand into your hair, And wondered is there something in the air?
And I saw you leave a shadow there, And I couldn't help but stare, And wonder is there something in the air? And wonder is there something in the air?
I've laid for seven years here, here inside my mind, Here inside my, Alone in my inaction, doubt has left me blind, Doubt has left me blind,
But I want to say, I'm getting out this time, Turning around those bright lights, Show me the world outside,
I've laid for twenty years here, Here inside my mind, Here inside my mind, And doubt has left me blind,
But I want to say, I'm getting out this time, Turning around those bright lights, Show me the world outside,
Seven years inside this fear, it's the long way, It's not for me, A simple road with little owed, it's the cheap way, But not quite free, And you will find this life unkind when you focus on your own needs, You will see,
But I want to say (I want to say) I'm getting out this time, Turning around those bright lights, Show me the world outside,
Lately I've been, doing some thinking, I guess that it's small like the last couple years, I never would guess, all that it's taught me, And I can't believe that it's brought me here, I'm happy that you, know where you're going, I wish I could say of myself that was true, We both pursue, something worth knowing, But I may not end with the same thing as you,
Wasn't there something you wanted to say? About all the things that could get in our way, If I am a martyr, will you be my flame, if it's all the same?
I'm counting the days, and counting the dollars, Wondering how much I'm willing to spend, To make us believe, that this is important, There's only so long that I can pretend,
Wasn't there something that you wanted to say? About all the things that could get in our way, If I am a martyr will you be my flame, if it's all the same?
If it's all the same,
You could write me a letter, You're not the only one, You're not the only one, If feels the way that you do, cause I feel it too,
Wasn't there something that you wanted to say? About all the things that could get in our way, If I am a martyr, will you be my flame, if it's all the same?
Wasn't there something that you wanted to say? About all the things that could get in our way, If I am a martyr, will you be my flame, if it's all the same?
