lyrics

Here she can be still, rest her eyes

The same way she’s done a thousand times
She can lose herself to her head

And count the sheep, count to ten

She knows how restless she can be
About the creaking floors

That chime all night relentlessly
Reminding her the day is done

The knots and loops we tie at night
To free ourselves at morning light

I never want to wait again
Terminal, I’m at a loss

I never want to wait again
Not a second, not to pause

Our best attempt to guard against
Slowly creeping pass of time

Now a fleeting delusion of mine
But I tried
To slow it all to a glacial pace
To numb it all, stay comatose
To slow it all to a glacial pace
But I tried, but I tried

You’re a fool if you honestly think

You have say in what you believe

You’re set in stone, you’re skin and bones
And you’re all you’ll ever be

As we wake up different people each day

I still can’t figure out what has changed

You said “you were wrong to look for that in me,

You asked of me something that I could never be”

And the bitterness, it pools and drowns out my thoughts
When I’m aching for a second, just to pause

When every spark of inspiration is second-best

You wrote to me, “life is still beautiful nonetheless”
