I've begged and borrowed
Stole and pleaded for your company
Is that enough to incite any sense of sympathy?
The tattered pieces on the floor
Display my dignity
I sweep them up
And find that now you're staring back at me
So alive I could die
(Chorus)
So I'll let go
Of all the things that make me me
And say no
To any chance of being free
I've tried to tell myself
The gain is worth the struggling
But all I ever get from you
Is pain and suffering
This convoluted thought
That you and I are queen and king
Is brought to ruin
By the dawn of this awakening
So alive I could die
Did this happen right on time
Or was it maybe way too soon?
Did you take my breath away
Or suck the air out of the room?
And did I offer you my heart
And trust that to me you'd be good?
Or was it stolen from the start?
Probably meaning I should
(Chorus)
Let go
Of all the things that make me me
And say no to any chance of being free
So alive I could die

Just like a spring held close
She flies away
And don't you ever forget
We were made this way
We were made this way
Never forget
Where you came from
Cause soon you'll be...
Finding the worst is behind
Vindicating lies
To suit your own peace of mind
Cause I know that
You were thinking of yourself
Find me a way to rewind
Circumventing the laws
So that we can go back in time
And make this right
And change your mind
Again
And so I won't be mad
If you go back on your word
Because it wasn't all that bad
From everything I heard
It was not that bad
So don't try to tell me
It was different back then
Cause you've been down that road before
And you know how it ends
So don't make
The same
Mistake
Again
(Make the same
Mistake that leads you
To that place again)
Again
Cause soon you'll, soon you'll be...
Finding the worst is behind
Vindicating lies
To suit your own piece of mind
Cause I know that
You were thinking of yourself
Find me a way to rewind
Circumventing the laws
So that we can go back in time
And make this right
And change your mind
AGAIN
AGAIN

Golden sun, sea of glass
Let their convergence last
Igniting amber sparks into the
Prism sky, sea foam blue
I wish that I could make it past the surface
Oh, and discover you
Cause all I see is
Fleeting sunsets
The horizon spells your name
Fading consciousness
In and out of lucid dreams
Finding solace
In the parallels we've made
Between the reds and greens
Conveying things unseen
Riverside, mountain pass
Rolling waves cascade through the tall grass
And it magnifies my awakened mind
And sparks would collide
If only I could just transcend this dimension
I would alter time
Cause all I see is
Fleeting sunsets
The horizon spells your name
Fading consciousness
In and out of lucid dreams
Finding solace
In the parallels we've made
Between the reds and greens
Conveying things unseen
Cause all I see is
Fleeting sunsets
The horizon spells your name
Fading consciousness
In and out of lucid dreams
Finding solace
In the parallels we've made
Between the reds and greens
That show how much this means

Life comes in threes
The beginning
The middle
And the end
With that comes three questions
What, when, and how
We seek the answers
We want to know right now
But we don't always
Get the truth
With little proof
Where do we go
Where do we go
Where do we go from here
And I see
She through
The lies
They use
They lie
To prove
They are with you
And I see
She through
The lies
They use
They lie
To prove
They're on your side
But I've had enough
Of this old system
We run in circles
We want to know
How life will go
But we fear the answers
So we stay, stay silent
Like puzzles we seek
The missing pieces
We don't always see
The bigger picture
