lyrics

I fear my fate is tied in broken dreams and frozen landscapes.
I fear my fate is tied in a high heart and skeleton arms.
I fear my fate is tied but I will not release my grip on the morning light; it's what I need.

But these melodies call out
to keep our minds at ease.
We need to see reality
and all of its time.
And when we do die
how it will change and
re-arrange the meanings...

I dropped the anxious act
so I can just be a man now
navigate the breaking waters of regret.
For the bottle was a friend too near, too long
and the consequence is aging on my skin.

But these soft remarks are just the start.
I can't escape the dream
of reality, panic,
and leave my body and nouns.

But these soft remarks are just the start
I can't escape the dream
of reality, panic,
and leave my body and nouns.

And no, no.
