lyrics

V1
I saw you drive off, in the rear view mirror.
It felt so far, but all those things are closer than they appeared.
Do you count every step, every highway line?
Every single floor, the reasons I left, and the days that went by?
I know you counted on me, but in the ash we’ll find,
What we lost in the fire.

V2
And in this parking lot, under a liars light.
Is this day breaking or broken?
Dreams of fire and flight.
I could have sold our souls for just a few more miles.
And then a piece of the heaven you used to believe in
Falling right before your eyes.
And you recall now how it burned.

Bridge
And I’ve been dreaming about a house on fire.
I don’t overthink these things, but I’ve been seeing some metaphors.
And I’ve been dreaming about you.
And it all doesn’t seem so cryptic anymore.

Chorus
I should have held on tightly, I should have froze in amber.
I was a god damn son of an astronaut, ready for blast off.
You were right about me, I was sinking slowly.
I was a space cadet with a one way ticket to anywhere but here.
I was wrong, I was wrong, I was wrong, I was wrong.
Gravity was far too much to outrun.
I was wrong, I was wrong, I was wrong, I was wrong.
Starry nights, satellites, orbiting a thousand times.
I’ll see you when I see you, I just hope it’s not too long.
