lyrics

Many times you said that you were free
Way too often I would disagree
I’d ask the world to hold the door
Just in case you wanted something more

You seem to think there’s nothing left to say
You find the words and then you
Throw them all away
You’re digging in another land
Crushing all the options in your hand

You thought that it would be alright
When everything was wrong
You were looking for a better life
And you had it all along

Close your eyes and listen
Carefully they said
Can you hear the colours
Yelling in your head
You wait beneath an angry sky
Waiting for another day so you can fly

You wanted many memories
But all you have are friends
Maybe if you stay a while
You can do it all again

You thought that it would be alright
When everything was wrong
You were looking for a better life
And you had it all along
