Northern Lights

Let them weigh me down
I can’t see you, I can’t even feel you
Lying to the people that are standing right in front of me
hiding in the picture, doubting the consequence
ruining the future, running in the past tense
The sun it shined so bright that day
there was no happiness to strip away
running from the people that are standing right in front of me
oh
Let them weigh me down
I can’t see you, I can’t even feel you
Lying to the people that are standing right in front of me
hiding in the picture, doubting the consequence
ruining the future, running in the past tense
Running blind with no clue
this life is unpredictable
When the rain pours, it pours hard
In this life, we will be pulled apart
It’s a joke, a hideous joke
I’m barely the punchline so watch me choke
Fall forward, the countdown in the moment, you know it
Because that’s just how it is
and for the tiniest moment, I am somewhere safe….
But everything changed
everything
everything
Changed
Something has changed you can see it in my eyes
It ain’t hard to see because it lives in disguise
I guess that negative thoughts inside a negative mind
if you connect the dots, you’ll maybe see inside, but would you?
I stared at the northern lights
the beauty that ignited in the sky (in the sky)
they didn’t trigger feeling (feeling)
the most colorful shade of lies
you begged me “don’t give up” (don’t give up)
and I saw the pain in your eyes
I threw it away, threw it away
It’s all too much to take
The darkest days, there’s no brighter way
No one to guide, we’re all running blind
don’t tell me that I’m the blind one
I stared at the northern lights
the beauty that ignited in the sky (in the sky)
they didn’t trigger feeling (feeling)
the most colorful shade of lies
you begged me “don’t give up” (don’t give up)
and I saw the pain in your eyes
I threw it away, threw it away
It’s all too much to take
