They loved me like I was something of a brother
She said she'd love to come help but
The sea would electrocute us all
I try to go and change
But the echoes stay the same
Ring, ring, ring inside my brain
But today's another day
I try to go and change
But the shadows stay the same
Dancing around my bedframe
Whenever my life fade away
And I've been wondering how
I've been wondering how
Gotta find a way out
Am I ever gonna get away?
And I've been wondering how
If I could trade it all
Am I ever gonna get away?
It's the moments in the wet sand
It's the clamour of the traffic jam
It's the wind upon these breezing sails
Wherever's keeping them where I stand
It's the full moon on the open mic
Tucked away inside the corners of my science class
It's the door behind the passion of the world
And it opens when you look back
And it opens when you look back
And it still exists, even when you can't see it
I believe this
And now I am told I am too old for your secrets
But I can see it
I try to go and change
But the shadows stay the same
Dancing around my bedframe
But today's another day
And I've been wondering how
I've been wondering how
If I could trade it all
Am I ever gonna get away?
And I've been wondering how
I've been wondering now
If I could trade it all
Am I ever gonna get away?
It's the moments in the wet sand
It's the clamour of the traffic jam
It's the wind upon these breezing sails
Wherever's keeping them where I stand
It's the full moon on the open mic
Tucked away inside the corners of my science class
It's the door behind the passion of the world
And it opens when you look back
And it opens when you look back
