And all this time we planned
to be apart
Yet here we are.
Filling in all the gaps
all caulked up
and conked out.
Draining to a place
I never thought
we’d come to.
For every second (We lose ourselves)
We try to get up (And even take flight)
No point in guessin’ (Why we met up?)
Our lives have caught up (What’s the answer?)
Watching you from afar
Shine like stars
that have burned out.
Illuminate the world
and you’ll hear
the depth of dark.
Throw away every fear
and what’s left
is who we are.
And, after you’ve stripped it down
to the quick
roll with the waves.
For every second (We lose ourselves)
We try to get up (And even take flight)
No point in guessin’ (Why we met up)
Our lives have caught up (What’s the answer)
Can you really hold
the true depth of dark?
Can you pierce a hole
Illuminate the fear
Can you really hold
the true depth of dark?
