[Verse 1]

Drift down along the interstate

Heading nowhere, anywhere far from here

Move on towards a new direction

It's easy to pretend that it's not this way

But you're killing me in a subtle way


[Chorus]

In my past, displays a reason

The past displays a cause

'Cause I know that we will never be the same

'Cause it's the elements that make us who we are


[Verse 2]

Lights Pass, another flare dies out

Signals a change I cannot turn around

If I wait, will it be the same?

I can't begin to see all the things that you may say

It's just another part of me that fades away


[Chorus]

In my past, displays a reason

The past displays a cause

'Cause I know that we will never be the same

'Cause it's the elements that make us who we are

And my path betrays my reason

My hope betrays my cause

And if I'd ever find a way, you'd know I'd follow through

I'd carry on, but the elements have made us who we are


[Instrumental Break]


[Chorus]

In my past, displays a reason

The past displays a cause

'Cause I know that we will never be the same

'Cause it's the elements that make us who we are

And my path betrays my reason

My hope betrays my cause

And if I'd ever find a way, you'd know I'd follow through

I'd carry on, but the elements have made us who we are
