In regards to the meaning of this song:
Before a live performance on the EP Five Stories Falling, Geoff states “It’s about the last time I went to visit my grandmother in Columbus, and I saw that she was dying and it was the last time I was going to see her. It is about realizing how young you are, but how quickly you can go.”
That’s the thing about Geoff and his sublime poetry, you think it’s about one thing, but really it’s about something entirely different. But the lyrics are still universal and omnipresent, ubiquitous, even. So relatable. That’s one thing I love about this band. I also love their live performances, raw energy and Geoff’s beautiful, imperfectly perfect vocals. His voice soothes my aching soul.
I---------
Am lost
In your eyes
In between your eyes
In your-----eyes
I need to---- escape
Forget myself
And be lost
Forever-----
End this pain
With one look
Into, into my face
I wake up
And I thank god
For all my time spent in
Your eyes the color of endless skies---x3
Just one more
Wanting to spend more time
I'd give my all
Just for more time
Dreams forget, what a hearts for
Time forgets, all I want
Hoping to see all I want
Hoping you give
Why cant you open my eyes
Dreams forget what my heart can not
Take me away from this
All I ask is one
One more time----
For us
Take my hand and just
End this pain---
With one look to my face
This wanting to see, wanting to be x2
Wanting to open
Just let you be
All I want is to open my
Why can't you give
All I want is to let you open my heart
Am lost
In your eyes
In between your eyes
In your-----eyes
I need to---- escape
Forget myself
And be lost
Forever-----
End this pain
With one look
Into, into my face
I wake up
And I thank god
For all my time spent in
Your eyes the color of endless skies---x3
Just one more
Wanting to spend more time
I'd give my all
Just for more time
Dreams forget, what a hearts for
Time forgets, all I want
Hoping to see all I want
Hoping you give
Why cant you open my eyes
Dreams forget what my heart can not
Take me away from this
All I ask is one
One more time----
For us
Take my hand and just
End this pain---
With one look to my face
This wanting to see, wanting to be x2
Wanting to open
Just let you be
All I want is to open my
Why can't you give
All I want is to let you open my heart
