lyrics

i can’t find the way they talk to me
their silent world hangs above me
closed off from what little room i had
i cannot move, i can no longer be

floods of distant ghosts are calling you
to be a part of last year’s tale
free of shackles from a real gaze
we’re at our best and we’re at our worst

take me to the wind where i can
feel the air all around embrace me
castles in their moats with no connection to anyone
all around are new born butterflies
i won’t harm the fresh light in their eyes
i looked around but it had gone away
i can’t find a reason to stay

i can’t read what they have shown me
and if i do i’m even less like me
tucked away from what used to move me
there’s little left, now so little right

waves of meaning all is leaving me
who really cares what i say
i feel like i’ve never been alive at all

take me to the winter i remember from so long ago
four feet deep and hours spent making new homes in our hopes
all around are new sun’s distant skies
i won’t harm the beauty for our lives
i looked around but i had gone away
could not find a reason to stay
