Taking stock of what you lost
And what you want to take
Roads of time will be straight again
If we stop, we can see ahead
The mountains desecrate
So as we caught ourselves astray
We're floating on our own
Hoping to reach tomorrow
These ghosts of ours, we sent away
Like refugees, nowhere to stay
A carousel of fallen days
Like refugees, nowhere to stay
Tried to cross at the quiet edge
Fell asleep at the shallow end
The hours turn to grey
I want to feel like you meant it
I want to think that we held it all
As the fever starts to take
So as we caught ourselves astray
We're floating on our own
Hoping to reach tomorrow
These ghosts of ours, we sent away
Like refugees, nowhere to stay
A carousel of fallen days
Like refugees, nowhere to stay
I put my thoughts through a metal sift
To separate my truth as illusion
And what I find, I will forgive
'Cause there aren't really any solutions
You said you felt so alive right at the summer's edge
This moment never resolves 'cause
There is no end
These ghosts of ours, we sent away
Like refugees, nowhere to stay
A carousel of fallen days
Like refugees, nowhere to stay
This road is unknown
We let go of these ghosts
This road is unknown
We let go of these ghosts
This road is unknown
We let go of these ghosts
This road is unknown
We let go of these ghosts
Roads of gold are forever dulled Taking stock of what you lost And what you want to take Roads of time will be straight again If we stop, we can see ahead The mountains desecrate So as we caught ourselves astray We're floating on our own Hoping to reach tomorrow These ghosts of ours, we sent away Like refugees, nowhere to stay A carousel of fallen days Like refugees, nowhere to stay Tried to cross at the quiet edge Fell asleep at the shallow end The hours turn to grey I want to feel like you meant it I want to think that we held it all As the fever starts to take So as we caught ourselves astray We're floating on our own Hoping to reach tomorrow These ghosts of ours, we sent away Like refugees, nowhere to stay A carousel of fallen days Like refugees, nowhere to stay I put my thoughts through a metal sift To separate my truth as illusion And what I find, I will forgive 'Cause there aren't really any solutions You said you felt so alive right at the summer's edge This moment never resolves 'cause There is no end These ghosts of ours, we sent away Like refugees, nowhere to stay A carousel of fallen days Like refugees, nowhere to stay This road is unknown We let go of these ghosts This road is unknown We let go of these ghosts This road is unknown We let go of these ghosts This road is unknown We let go of these ghosts Explain Request ×
