If I face my fear
Would my skies be all but clear?
Probably not, then again
I've always held my doubts so close to my heart
That these frames trapped all my better days
There they stay frozen and unscathed
Though I've traveled far
I've been back to the start
And I found some scars in places I have never shown to anyone
I don't know why it took so long to get back home
"If you could hear the dreams I've had, my dear..."
Yea I know, you've heard that line before
But if I had the chance to scream all the things I've underlined
Yea you'd find I'm a thief
But my taste is so refined
And I traveled far, I reached for the stars
But those stars don't reach back
They're better left alone
Everyone will tell you
I never felt more alone than when I fell
I don't know why it took so long to get back home
All these miles just to get back home
Travelled all these miles just to get back home [x2]
This song is so sad yet so calming. It reminds of a feeling you get when someone close to you dies, but while you're sad, you learn to move on and be happy with the life they lived. You may miss them, but you'll always have the memories to guide you forward
This is the song that comes on as your drive down a road at midnight...The song you listen to as you run away from something that was hurting you...The song you think of when you're broken. Had a break up. Feel broken up.
But theres no real explanation. Its just beautiful
I see a lot of people saying that this song makes them want to cry, and lmaO I see exactly where you're coming from, but it's the complete opposite for me. I listen to this when I have bad anxiety, or when I feel down, and it calms me down and puts better thoughts in my head and idk this song has come to mean a lot to me because of that
I listened to the live version of this when it first was uploaded on here over and over because I just fell in love with the lyrics, your voice, the guitar, the emotion..everything. And hearing it recorded, I'm literally in tears. This is my favorite off of the album. It's beautiful and I'm never gonna get tired of listening to it c':
The first time I ever listened to this song I stopped breathing for a second because the music was so s a d and beautiful and it made me feel so many different emotions at the same time ,, and then when I actually began paying attention to the lyrics I had to sit down because I was so emotional that I started crying. I know that's pretty cheesy and dumb but I just adore this song and I haven't listened to it in a while. Still doesn't fail to make me an emotional mess
