[Intro]

Praying for better days

Better days

Praying for better days


[Verse 1]

What do we need air for

Now that we are airborne?

Now that we are here

Thorns in the flesh

Dig a little deeper than we care for

Thought I was being careful

Till I realised that I hurt the ones I cared for

Forgot what it's like being carefree

Crushed by the weight

Of my very own gravity

Yeah

The sun is at its apex

Pivoting our strange nest

Analysing kings and their castles

Like the game chess

Me I'm taking same steps

Observation, say less

Speak my mind on BPMs

And give you life from my lens

Walk a mile in my shoes

You'll wonder where the mile ends

C2C to zone 1

I'm passing through that Mile End

My journey to the centre of the stage

Many tight bends

Chicanes, corners

Kaizen, improve before the night ends


[Hook]

And where my sight ends

Near where light bends

Near the black holes

Above the kite threads

Many plot holes

Couple side steps

That don't make sense

Foreign arrangements

Peculiar pavements

And unknown alley ways

My life full of digressions I had to make

Like do I pull my parachute or do I let it lay?

I'm still trusting that you'll lead the way


[Verse 2]

Waterfalls

Highways

Air currents

Light rays

Paths of travel

Rarely rigid

They just let the flow of time take hold

I hold on to memories of how her eyes gaze

Still I struggle to find my way

Desperate and lonely?

Heathen or holy?

Am I going through the phase

Of the motions?

Or are my emotions jaded

Like fairytale potions at midnight?

With glass slippers that don't fit right

I bit my tongue

I held back

I was scared of our future

I couldn't yell that

A future with you

I couldn't tell that

The fear in my heart

Forgot he nailed that

But things might change

I know a new horizon's on a nearby range

This time I'm breaking orbit

I've released my frame

And heading out beyond

Where my eyesight has seen or grazed

Yeah


[Hook]

And where my sight ends

Near where light bends

Near the black holes

Above the kite threads

Many plot holes

Couple side steps

That don't make sense

Foreign arrangements

Peculiar pavements

And unknown alley ways

My life full of digressions I had to make

Like do I pull my parachute or do I let it lay?

I'm still trusting that you'll lead the way


[Outro]

Yeah

Still trusting that you'll lead the way

Either way

Praying for better days

Yeah

Praying for better days
