So many things

Look at the ways

How the cracks are forming

Breaking it down

Pulling the seams

Moving from night to morning

All of this noise

Turning to dust

Only the seeds remaining

Building it up

Haul it away

Under a sky that's fading

I never could tell

Never could see it through

The little pieces that we don't see

Somehow still add up to

More than an inch

Miles of minutes

Cover the tracks behind us

Pick up the pace

Grinding the gears

Hoping that no one will find us

Wind back the clocks

Tear down the gates

Take in the view before us

Holding our breath

Closer to death

Leaving behind a forest

All they were were echoes

I got to let go

Something that you never find

Memories that are not mine

It could never lose its thrill

Shivers when I hold you still

Something that you never knew

Your past is in my future too

No one else can make it right

None of us can stop the tide

I never could tell

Never could see it through

The little pieces that we don't see

Somehow still add up to

Something that you never find

Memories that are not mine

It could never lose its thrill

Shivers when I hold you still

Something that you never knew

Your past is in my future too

No one else can make it right

None of us can stop the tide
