He just wanted to sleep underneath the sun
Why couldn’t we accept and leave him as one
The cost was unpredictable
The loss of all that's physical
And processing the past
Just made it un-dismissable
I’m outpaced I’m outpaced
I’m outpaced I’m outpaced
Why can’t I see his face
He holds my face
I’m awfully tired where is your face
And oh, I don’t have a being anymore
He lasts beneath my eyes and eyelids
So look around for where our mind lives
I can’t keep you on a shelf
And you can’t think I’m someone else
So as I travel back in time
Why don’t my words come back to bite
There’s something old I couldn’t bear
Something too secret for me to share
So when things turn and I know you’re gone
Feeling far removed until the crack of dawn
And when I learn what you really are
I’ll change my mind I’ll fall so far
[We Fall So Far]
you’d fall so far horror in your heart
but with the rise of the sun fear departs
so if you look around and I’m not there
it’s your tunnel vision baby I’m with you in the air
I will fall hard I will fall fast so when it hits I won’t hit back
So if things turn baby hear me out
Could we both ignore it for a minute starting now
I want to hold you close I want to hear your sound
Could we exist just for a bit before we both fall down
