lyrics

Fucking how are we supposed to pick up
all these broken pieces and keep on going
like we won't be slowed down by a mystery
no one can explain?
So without a hesitation life escapes and
goes on forever off into another place with
everything I can't erase. I'd follow, but I
cannot go, and I'll regret not knowing so.
But I can see, and I can stand, and I can try to understand
the fall to the earth.
But I can see, and I can stand, and I can try to understand
where I belong, and what I am and why I never kept
any of this.
I hate all of this.

And I, I am.

And I, I am Standing now before the face of
what I fear the most. I'll face it like what's coming
with the wind of curiosity in me I feel so damn
separate. Run and scream and hide and make this
moment go away. Tempt me not forever.
Off into another place with everything I can't erase.
I'd follow, but I cannot go, and I'll regret not knowing so.
But I can see, and I can stand, and I can try to understand
the fall to the earth.
But I can see, and I can stand, and I can try to understand
where I belong, and what I am and why I never kept

And I, I am.
