lyrics

From the end of the road, it's clear now
This plain white wall is undefined
But I can mark it how I choose to
... And I choose not to

I can say I'll let go, it's easy
But in letting go, there's a disconnect
See this disregard breed resentment
Let the things we love die forgotten

And I am stuck on the same road
Here pushing this rock up the same old hill
Redefine an entire existence at my own will

Words ghosted, here reading, "Someday."

I caught lightning in the spaces in between
It strikes, yet no one sees the spark, save for me
I'm still trying to turn the whole world into flame
A spark that's captured here on earth, in yearning

It's the end of the road, it's clear now
And these years pass by, uninvited
Hello brick wall, my lifelong friend
How you climb in my absence

I've got a lot of thoughts here in my head
It's like living in my own mythic hell
When all of these ending ebb out when the rivers still

Stuck staring here at this blank slate
Words ghosted, here reading, “It's too late”

Heroes tell stories of this wretched place
No heroes tell my story anymore
There's nothing reliable in flesh and bone
Offer your head to me, serve it on a platter

I caught lightning in the spaces in between
It strikes, yet no one sees the spark, save for me
I'm still trying to turn the whole world into flame
A spark that's captured here on earth, and only I remain
