There's no way in the world you can make me
Take back all the things I have seen
When we're lost in the haze
On the darkest of days
Hours of endless explaining
To my story that keeps on changing
When the bridges are burned
It doesn't feel like we've won
I don't think anyone said it was easy
Everyone under the cloud is against me
They don't care
How we got here
He told me they wouldn't get it
If you don't try your best you'll regret it
Even stars don't shine
All of the time
The screams from the back get clearer
When you stare at yourself in the mirror
These wounds cut deep
When we're put to sleep
Strolling along in the twilight
Nobody cares about your birthright
When it crumbles in dust
All that you trust
Even the stars don't shine
All of the time

Lost In Our Head

Do you not feel yourself
Living as someone else
Ashamed of time you missed
Should have been more than this
How could we not see
The burning forest for the trees
Lost in our heads spiralling down instead
Gone before I could see
All the places I wanted to be
My moment of resistance
Shattered dreams, broken kisses
A long time before I thought I knew it all
Lost in our heads spiralling down instead
Our fears of being shown
More than we can ever know
Loyal to the path
But it all comes too fast
Lay there in the depth of night
Locked inside
Lost in our heads spiralling down instead
