lyrics

It all came to life with my words, with your smile
Somewhat of a scary feeling
No reason to feel what we felt
Our own lives so many miles apart

The moments we cherished, the letters we wrote
The tears that we shared together
The days growing closer as friends
Our own songs healing worries and pain

I really don’t know when it broke, when it fell
My castle of cards was crumbling
No time left to wave you goodbye
No more feelings, no words will remain

(Stop! Please!) Let me go, let me be, let me live!
(Free) From the madness, from the tears and the rain

Take the leap to the land far beyond
When you’re drowning in fire
And the past tries to drag you down
Just let it all out and scream
And sing your song to the sky

"I know that limp. I know the empty ring finger. And that obsessive nature of yours, that’s a big secret. You got something, anything, one thing. The reason normal people got wives and kids and hobbies, whatever. That’s because they don’t got that one thing that hits them that hard and that true. The thing you think about all the time, the thing that keeps you south of normal. Yeah, makes us great, makes us the best. All we miss out on is everything else.”

Just cease all the mind games and put it to rest
Let light into darkness, get on with your quest
It’s all in your power, a world that is blessed and free

Take the leap to the land far beyond
When you’re drowning in fire
And the past tries to drag you down
Just let it all out and scream
And sing your song to the sky
...To the sky!
