This is a song about being stuck between a rock and a hard place.

every star you saw her in and every
time you smiled at her and every
word you spoke you spoke to some
strange goal i can't discern, and

each and every joy you're missing from the
only thing you'd ever felt, the
sunset with no end so far
detached from being love

(you notice a flower petal drifting through the air, slowly falling...)

if you really felt like you were only
ever going to be happy
in the presence of someone
who takes the world away, →

why is it that things won't stop getting worse? why
does it hurt to think of so? what
is it that cries out when you
cry over letting go?

every world you met her in and every
choice that you believed was right, each
feeling you just wished to drown
and not see realised

all the beautiful sounds of the world, all
this new life just being born, all
that you promised years ago, all
by yourself, and with your friends, all
that you didn't think you'd hear, all
that you never thought you'd find: you
hold the future by your hands and
you can change your mind ■
