Your words are moving light years away from me

The state I’m caught in leaves no place for you to be

Are these the laws of motion, unchangeable deceit

Am I unable to learn from the mistakes that I repeat

I could not change my old ways

And what’s been lost in time I can’t replace

Too many promises that I couldn’t keep

I try to take hold of what our dreams could be

We’re falling apart and we’re drifting away

Like the continents tectonic plates

The light that still shines on the other bay

The distance will turn into grey

We’re falling back into our initial state

As observers of what we can’t change

And expanding forces are taking away

Days, hours and seconds as we’re left to fade

Fade, as we’re left to fade, fade

Fade, as we’re left to fade, fade

I could not change my old ways

And what’s been lost in time I can’t replace

Too many promises that I couldn’t keep

I try to take hold of what are dreams could be
