lyrics

Give it up, run hide get out of the way
Anything just to stay safe
Anything to not be afraid

Paralyzed, a satellite frozen in space
Motionless unwavering gaze
Clueless to its blistering pace

All this time, bracing against this awful tide
Just to take a place in line
And test my fate

Slowly still dragging my feet along the floor
Leaning against the heaviest door
Hoping it gives way

When you see more day than night
And feel entitled to the light
You don’t mind the sacrifice
Or the price you pay

Now that things don’t seem so safe
And you feel so far from day
you wish that you had saved
what you gave away

All this time, bracing against this awful tide
Just to take a place in line
And test my fate

Slowly still feeling the weight of all these years
Leaning against the heaviest gears
Hoping they give way
