lyrics

Begin with a riddle that none of us could solve
Why does the city of stars still
swallow earth for the cold?
It turns the air into sparks and ignites when you see,
No matter how you allocate or sacrifice
There are no guaranties

Two paths down ahead
Two you can take
Make peace in the flames
Or drag them with you
To the universes edge
No one knows what you will see there
But everyone knows why you go

You and I, we're in prayer
For the road, that it holds beneath our feet
So hold my hand through the white noise
Remember the wounds, missteps are trophies
when we're there

We'd go so far
For that reason I'd take you anywhere
Won’t let it be for nothing at all
In horizons, bright sunlight, I say I should learn
But lose myself in endings convinced
this day brings my turn
Part of me was always, part of me never came
A new place, but also the same

You can only sacrifice what you love
And then we pick up the pieces
All the love we can carry we take
And some light is left behind

I still keep my visions
Of how life will be like for future me
One for fullfillment, my own
And one for the people I care for

But I have one where I'm old
And none of this has changed
No solace, no purpose
Just a lifetime of mistakes
And if my sorrow was to repeat itself I woke,
To one more dream in the fold

How do we know that there's someting to wait for
When it all escapes us, our hopes and our hearts
Remember us watching that starlit sky
You said you would recall forever, I don’t think you did
No matter if there's a present, a future
Something has left, and it was qualia
A color only you would ever know
