You said you'd follow close But now you're out of reach And I am not walking backwards Nevertheless, I'm not afraid Now seeing that This stem seems to grow and harness The only light found in the darkness There's something beautiful About the times we learn to grow Despite the places we have been I never bit the feeding hand Bury ourselves in road maps Find ourselves a destination Worry ourselves to death With the voices in our heads They're in our heads; these voices We'll drown them out And follow through And find that steady glow for you Nevertheless, if I'm being honest I'm running far from here What would you say if I gave One more reason to stay? "All the more reason To stay away from me" Your thoughts seem to wear and tarnish Every time you act so heartless Reap what you sow You're on your own now Despite the places we have been I never bit the feeding hand So why worry myself to death With the voices in our heads? They're in our heads; these voices We'll drown them out And follow through And find that steady glow for you Nevertheless, if I'm being honest I'm running far from here You steal every part of me The love The bliss The sympathy Your paradigms spread apathy Upon these deafened ears These clocks like hell run endlessly Into places of unpleasantry I shut down afar from here While you rebirth your precious years This stem seems to grow and harness The only light found in the darkness
