lyrics

There's an error on the line, I think I figured it out.
It's the years of overcoming some irrational doubt.
The silence in the morning paints a picture of hope
So I'll stay there, if you let me.

There's a million different ways I've built a world for myself,
an absurd amount of risk-taking I've made for my health.
Loudness is a warning that darkness is near,
but it stays light as I go out.

I'd be lying if I said I didn't hate it that much,
so I waste my time and tell my sorry brain to hush.
Every time I turn my shoulder I'm in less of a rush.
It stays light as I go out.

For the last time, I'm thinking this over to myself.
Like the last time, drop my sorrow, cascade to somewhere else.

Yeah I'm finding different meaning in the novels I wrote,
the collective imitations of real anecdotes.
I find me in the ocean looking up at my boat and it's capsized,
yeah capsized.

What a dire situation, such a terrible mode,
we transcend the tribulations and then learn to float.
Find this way of living in no need of a code it will stay light,
as you go out.

When you get a little light in you're aware of the truth,
you can find yourself enjoying everything that you do.
Then the apathetic notion really starts to fade when you see it,
and you'll see it.

For the last time, I'm thinking this over to myself.
Like the last time, drop my sorrow, cascade to somewhere else.
You'll complain when you're not satisfied with these results.
It's been rainin' and I still have yet to check my pulse.

There's an error on the line I think you'll figure it out,
and replace the years of seemingly irrational doubt.
Suffering and sorrow is not what life's about,
not forever, not forever.

Filled with terror push your mind to the original state,
when you didn't have to worry and you could create-
the most glorious imperfections you might underrate,
you find a light inside of your hands, feet, and face.
