lyrics

I can’t find a way to turn back
It all seems inane to me
If there is a chance to feel then
It should just be plain to see

Plates are shifting
Heavy lifting
Gravity just brings me down
The ground is churning
Without warning
There’s no other way but down

When there’s a warning in your heart
You’ll end up falling on your own again
But still you just can’t see your part
You end up . . .

Falling on your own
There is nothing left to say
But I can’t get back home
No matter how hard I try

Thinking that I’ve grown
Can’t believe it’s not enough
Forgetting all I’ve known
This is where it’s really tough

There’s just not a better way
Can’t wait for another day
To claim the things I think that I’ve known
Can’t find the steps to this dance
But I don’t want a second chance
When I choose to make it on my own




I don’t know and I don’t care
And it won’t get me anywhere
I cannot find a thing to share
If there’s a hell you’ll find me there

It’s alright and I’m OK
I’ll start my climb another day
But for now I think I’ll stay
And make this place my home

When the daylight comes
I think I’ll finally fly
But when the moment‘s done
I find I hardly try

But when I get back home
I’ll find another way
To pull myself back up
And start my way back

Mores shifting
Moral sifting
Social norms just bring me down.
The world is burning
Lost in yearning
Precious time before we drown

When there’s a warning in your heart
You’ll end up falling on your own again
So now it starts to fall apart

Falling on my own
There is nothing left to say
Now I can’t get back home
No matter how hard I try

Thinking that I’ve grown
Can’t believe it’s not enough
Forgetting all I’ve known
This is where it’s really tough

If there is a better way
It doesn’t seem clear today
It’s time to now rethink what I’ve known
It’s not too late to learn dance
Do I deserve a second chance?
The key is not to do it all alone

I don’t know and I don’t care
And will it get me anywhere?
Can’t look at my Feet and stare
Can I come up to breathe the air?

It’s alright and I’m OK
I think I’ll start my climb today
Have to leave, I cannot stay
I have to get back home

Now I know this is the way
To take some real Control today
To change all of the things that I’ve known
Can’t afford to stop and whine
I’ve gotta do it right this time
Or find another chance has been blown

So now I know, and now I care
I feel I can go anywhere
My Soul at last can be laid bare
Beyond the need to pay the fare

I finally have the chance to say
That I have found my place today
No longer in the game we play
That takes us far from home.
