Phinehas – Forever West lyrics

[Chorus]
Forever west, follow the sunset
Leave the past in the darkness behind you
Forever west, don’t let the sun set
Don’t look back, never look back

[Verse 1]
If you should find yourself all alone
Remembering the cold the night air brought
Its sting like salt biting the knives in our backs
We were waiting for a glint of light
Preceding dawn
When the hills bled paint like fire on the horizon
Upon a golden canvas sky

[Chorus]
Forever west, follow the sunset
Leave the past in the darkness behind you
Forever west, don’t let the sun set
Don’t look back, never look back

[Breakdown]
If you should find yourself alone
My stars will point you back to me
You’ll have to fight through the night
For what’s at stake
You’ll have to fight through the night
Until morning breaks
Fight through the night

[Verse 2]
The shadows grew as the light fell dim
To remind me of my struggle within
A contrast sharp enough to pierce my heart (to pierce my heart)
But I’ll run until my legs go numb
Away, away from the dark
(Forever west, follow the sunset)

[Chorus]
Forever west, follow the sunset
Leave the past in the darkness behind you
Forever west, don’t let the sun set
Don’t look back, never look back

[Post-Chorus]
Forever west
Follow the sunset
Forever west
Forever, forever

[Breakdown Outro]
You’ll have to fight through the night
You’ll have to fight through the night
