Sky Took Hold

Your mind is racing

The sky took hold

Of all my little daily fears

They never seem to go

A dusty vista

You hunger for the core

I never meant to take it so far

A mirror never shows

Who I am beneath the surface

Hiding out so long inside my mind

Every day I stay blind to it

Habit comes and tears me open wide

All the time

Your heart is erasing

The time just froze

And left me with little doubt

That there's anywhere to go

I'm pushing forward

To leave this home

I never meant to stay so long

My reflection never shows

Who I am beneath the surface

Hiding out so long inside my mind

Every day I stay blind to it

Habit comes and tears me open wide

All the time

Since I was a young boy it was always there

Inside me growing none of it seems fair

I've grown to accept it, let it take the stage

And leave me helpless, watching far away
