My head is in the clouds
But my feet are still on the ground
And I'm running, running
Sometimes I can see the future
And I'm on mountain's peak
Living in the moment is torture
Demanding for the life I seek
Sometimes I feel trapped in a box
Punching and kicking the walls
This thing won't break
Unless I give it my all
What do I have to give
If I gave it all away
My head is in the clouds
But my feet are still on the ground
And I'm slipping, slipping
Because I just remembered
That I'm still too small
My hands furiously waving at the sky
Nothing to catch me, should I fall
And here, I live
In this viscous cycle
Of dreaming and self destructio
Am I searching
For something that feels new, or something old
I've spent some time hurting
For the same lies that I've been told
Wrapped in your arms
Your eyes, your soul, and all the things I adore
Stop and think, now
I have been here a thousand times before
Butterflies, sunshine, and all that glitters
They say is not gold
Not like the gold in your eyes, I sense what they see
Your finger tips brushing my cheek
Dipping into my soul
Stable, protecting, nurturing
I wanna water the seeds of your dreams
And heal the wounds of your past
For the kindness you've given me has left a fire burning
You remembered my birthday every year
Months without
I was flying high above the city
Feeling my dreams abound
The suddenly, something hit me
When I landed on the cold hard ground
Lying vulnerable and naked
This room feels so cold
How badly I just wanted to be taken
By all the things that make me feel bold
Don't tell me the high is over
I fell from cloud nine
And wound up six feet under
Now on my soul, my demons can dine
Can you hear it? Can you hear the thunder?
It's the sound angels make
When they have lost their grace
Now, I'm six feet under
When I fell from cloud nine
Is this what they calling being sober?
When finally can see so clearly
Remnants of my cure, tightly clutched
When I kno
Out of control again
I've slipped and made the same mistakes
I promised I'd never do again
Blamed everyone but the right one
Down and out, here we go again
Spinning until I'm dizzy, sick
Lost everyone I cared about
Break me from the loop
Down and around, again and again
When do I hit the bottom?
Where there is no more anxiety, only darkness, numb
Spiraling round and round
Ride me to the top where I feel good
So, I can spiral all the way back down
Where there is no more anxiety, only darkness, numb
It's not my fault
I never asked for this
I had plans and I was going to grow strong
But somebody flipped the script
It's only my fault if I sta
I've been learing
To accept things the way they are
To calm my yearnings
And know we've made it very far
I've been growing that back bone
I've been leaning on you for
Still, I don't have a heart of stone
Everyday I miss you more
All this time that keeps passing
I get scared and lonely some days
Surprised that this is lasting
But at least I can say that I'm ok
I'm ok
As long as I remember
I'm ok
And lest I forget
Will you remind me?
That it's all ok
We're ok
You're ok
I'm ok
We're making it
I'm doing it
Even when I'm not taking it
We're still going through it
Soon, our time will come
There is a light I can see
Even
Maybe some fires take time to kindle
Every day I awaken just a little
But I've felt a new kind of optimism
I believe in my dreams and idealism
If I ever thought life was unfair
It's because my will just wasn't there
I was making the choice to lay down and cry
But I get back up now because I don't want to die
I'm alive like a fire in the sky
A phoenix shooting through the stratosphere
Dropping embers of hope into our hearts
As I'm breaking through the atmosphere
A phoenix shooting across the stars
I'm alive like a fire in the sky
I don't need a new years resolution
To make my own personal revolution
I set out to do what I was made for
Beca
It's always magical in the beginning
It's when we for once feel like we're winning
The sun feels much brighter
Life feels much lighter
And we hit it off pretty damn well
Talking about how we felt like hell
And then we found our energy
Bouncing around the electricity
Life suddenly gets pretty perilous
It gets to the best of us
But we hold on as tight as we can
Until we fall apart, and can't stand
Chasing our symmetry
Regenerating that electricity
I can't keep finding anew anymore
This is all I have the energy for
I'll run until my lungs burst
Chasing our symmetry
Regenerating that electricity
Because some how things always fall into place
My head is in the clouds
But my feet are still on the ground
And I'm running, running
Sometimes I can see the future
And I'm on mountain's peak
Living in the moment is torture
Demanding for the life I seek
Sometimes I feel trapped in a box
Punching and kicking the walls
