I keep falling back to old familiar ways.
I've checked this map a thousand times, I'm still lost inside my mind.
& my heart keeps holding onto yesterdays, no matter how hard I try, I never seem to climb.
So let's fade away. Hiding in the shadow of the night where no one dares to look. Are you sure that you're smiling?
Nobody hears the cries that we hear from the waves.
If I close my eyes will the sun come up in the morning?
Will the light arise & light up all the corners of your face?
Time keeps rolling & I keep counting down the days.
I've lived that life a thousand times, we're still kids inside my mind.
& my heart keeps holding onto things we said.
Swimming in the thoughts of forgotten summer nights.
So let's fade away. Hiding in the shadow of the night where no one dares to look. Are you sure that you're smiling?
Nobody hears the cries that we hear from the waves.
If I close my eyes will the sun come up in the morning?
Will the light arise & light up all the corners of your face?
