lyrics

This repetition is making me sick
What’s turning in me, is waves that are thick
With enough commotion to make me drown
Where my body is going, is down
I’ll find reassure in failure
I’ll fail so hard, I’ll make your numbers curve
So set me aside for another talk
And let me know I’m not what you thought I’d be

I wish my feet were not earthbound

Cause I’d jump off this ledge and fly
And disappear into the distant sky

The stars would be my new home
And I can finally be alone

But I’ve been told it doesn’t work that way
And my purpose in life is to work for pay

I watched a star fall down today
And everyone nearby ran away
But I ran towards it to watch it crash

I’ve been dying in all of my dreams
I’m trying to find my story’s ending
But I can only find the beginning
I don’t know if I am truly living
When my life revolves around this clock
And the sound of it’s ticking

Suddenly my seat launched up
And I was in the stratosphere
I floated along, and nothing bothered me
All my worries below, I couldn’t hear
It was an isolation that brought me peace
I had never known
Seeing the comets and all the planets
With no one around made me feel so at home

I open my eyes and I’m back on earth
I start to reevaluate my worth
Screaming on the edge of heaven
With nothing to hold to stay afloat
I need to tell someone where I’ve just been
But no one understands my worn out throat

No, not again
