[Intro: Ben Murray]

I know I’ll see an end to this despair

But then I’m sure it’ll start all over again

I want to know if these years have been in vain

These months spent wasting away

Obsessing over the end of days

Or at least the impending death coming my way

Part of me feels I’ll see tomorrow

Yet I’m not convinced it won’t feel the same

[Chorus: Laura Nichol & Ben Murray]

So take me to the place I love

Where fears turn to fiction and dissolve

Into the space above the stars and dust and galaxies

Too far to ever destroy me

I’m safe from the cosmic-blackened seas

Whose waves crash down on me with crushing blows of anxiety

So take me to the place I love

Where fears turn to fiction and dissolve

Into the space above the stars and dust and galaxies

Too far to ever destroy me

I’m safe from the cosmic-blackened seas

Whose waves crash down on me with crushing blows of anxiety


[Bridge: Ben Murray]

Sometimes I wonder if things really get better

Or does the hand of time just beat us down until we surrender?

Sometimes I wonder if things really get better

Or does the hand of time just beat us down?

[Verse: Ben Murray & Laura Nichol]

I’ve never been so scared of waking up

These nights just never last long enough

The sun creeps in and I deteriorate

Into a lonely, isolated state

Of existence, I hardly exist at all

Until the sun retreats and the night falls

And the shades of grey overtake me

With sheets of armor and a shield of dreams

[Chorus: Laura Nichol & Ben Murray]

So take me to the place I love

Where fears turn to fiction and dissolve

Into the space above the stars and dust and galaxies

Too far to ever destroy me

I’m safe from the cosmic-blackened seas

Whose waves crash down on me with crushing blows of anxiety

So take me to the place I love

Where fears turn to fiction and dissolve

Into the space above the stars and dust and galaxies

Too far to ever destroy me

I’m safe from the cosmic-blackened seas

Whose waves crash down on me with crushing blows of anxiety


[Bridge: Ben Murray]

Sometimes I wonder if things really get better

Or does the hand of time just beat us down until we surrender?

Sometimes I wonder if things really get better

Or does the hand of time just beat us down?
