Diapause Lyrics

Is this just the beginning
Or did I look behind
As I missed your demise
As I fell through the night

I view you like a statue
So tight and controlled
With my heart by your soul
Until you find a home

I am not pretending but I'm turning away
I cannot stay here with these debts I must pay

I mapped out a journey to reach my broken heart
Before I even started the plan began to fall apart
I've built so many walls to keep these feelings true
I've burnt so many bridges but not the one that leads to you
The one that leads to you

I looked into the sunset I screamed and I sighed
I raised hope then it died so I ran and I lied
I stood still for a moment, paralyzed
The sky seemed so high as the world passed me by

I can't find a solution as decades unfold
So callous as my standstill takes hold

I mapped out a journey to reach my broken heart
Before I even started the plan began to fall apart
I've built so many walls to keep these feelings true
I've burnt so many bridges but not the one that leads to you

Broken hearts
Fall apart

I've burnt so many bridges but not the one that leads to you
The one the leads to you

I mapped out a journey to reach my sunken heart
Before I even started the plan began to fall apart
I've built so many walls to keep these feelings true
I've burnt so many bridges but not the one that leads to you
The one that leads to you
