Have you ever thought of things in this way
If we could burn like candle flames
So beautiful
So bright and pure
You always said what I needed to hear from you
"Things are gonna be alright"
You messed with my head then flew away from me
Was I just the key for your space ship ride?
I got no idea where you'll land your ship
I just want to know if I can reach you
Shout as I might, my words never reach you up there
But you already know what I'm saying anyway, don't you know
As I am now, there's no way to shorten the distance between us
Memories fill the void up between us
You know I love the moon and stars, tell me, how did they shine?
You messed with my head then flew away from me
Was I just the key for your space ship ride?
I got no idea where you'll land your ship
I just want to know if I can reach you
I've grown so tired of feeling so alone
Just wish that some things wouldn't fade right away
Can't handle how reality crumbles down
When we were just stupid kids
You hit me like a comet
You left, but your words are still here
Are buried deep in my skull, deep sleeping but not yet dead
I will not ever forget
The way you moved when with me
I will not ever forget
Your voice pulses in my head
I won't let the memories slip away from me
You messed with my head then flew away from me
Was I just the key to your space ship ride?
I got no idea where you'll land your ship
I just want to know if I can reach you
I've grown so tired of feeling so alone
Just wish that some things wouldn't fade right away
Say I'm not alone

ReplyDeleteShoot for the stars, always aim for the top
Moonlight waits behind clouds
No one else can take the lead, rolling on
Here for the ride
Take in the days as they come and go
We're waiting to hear the gunshot
Hold on tight to all you can't believe
We'll start our race
A paint-splattered wall
Horn blares, roaring cars
Loneliness is what I fell
Pain and hurt is what I know
Salt air of the beach
Shakes me from the drive
Time rushes to the sky
Stars crashing down
Let's leave all of our regrets in the past
Before we see the day break
Regrets are like a dream, let them pass away
Before you sleep
Take in the fears, oh they come and go
We're waiting to hear the gunshot
Hold on tight to all the lies you've told
Start the next race
Burnt rubber screeches hot
Won't slow at any crossing
Red eyes, running on fumes,
Grip strong to the steering wheel
We don't need any signs
Just gotta keep it simple
Scenes flash from my old dreams
And fade from my memory
Falling away from me, I let go of them
It's always times like these,
When stars come crashing down
Set up and ready, waiting for the signal
Why not forget giving up?
Forgot how to give up
This story is born, but never ends
Shoot for the starts, always aim for the top
Moonlight waits behind clouds
No one else can take the lead, rolling on
Here for the ride
Take in the days as they come and go
We're waiting to hear the gunshot
Hold on tight to all you can't believe
We'll start our race

ReplyDeleteOne day it came to me
I am always driving down the same road, the same way
Looking for an off-ramp
As I take the same turns, same old curbs each day
One day it came right to me
I'm always relying on other people to save me
Trying to stand on my feet
As I go back to ask you for help
I go back to ask you for
The speed is mine to set
I will just go my own way
So I won't forget what I see
In my dirty rear-view mirror
I take in each little detail
The future, just an instant past
Lies in my rear-view mirror
I suck in each little detail
That one day, you asked me
"Hey, what would you do
If you could do anything?"
I was gonna dodge the question with a stupid joke
But you went on,
"Do it right now"
Which reminds me, I think someone else
Once told me
"There is no time like now, don't wait"
I did not get it at the time,
But I feel like your words
Made it clear, to me I get it now
So I won't forget what I see
In my dirty rear-view mirror
I take in each little detail
The future, just an instant past
Lies in my rear-view mirror
I suck in each little detail
All those shadows on the horizon beckoning me
All these people speeding right past me, off they go
