THERE YOU ARE (HIDING PLACE)

Days that I went missing

Stumbled on a long walk somewhere

So many places we don't belong

So few we do

But you

Came around the corner with your arms wide

Said your favorite words to me despite everything

Lift to the clouds on haze or lantern flames

Shuffling off to sleep

To dream I'd never leave again

Shuffling off to sleep

To dream I'd never leave again

Summer shifting like a dream

Summer shifting like a dream for me

You go shuffling off to sleep

To places where you're hiding out

The anger in your eyes

Bright your life of lightning striking

I was afraid to find

An older me alive in you

Afraid that I'd be blinded by the lightness

Of a good you never knew

And in the summer

When I was angry

When I was tired

When I was scared

I just stared into nothing

I just stared into nothing

When I was worried

When I was tired

When I was angry or afraid

I just stayed in the same place for days

In the same place for days

In the same place for days

Shuffling off to sleep

Dream I'd never leave again

Shuffling off to sleep

Dream I'd never leave again

Silent by your own hands

You shake now when you speak

Hold tightly to your sleeping

On the concrete of my dreams

And you go silent by your own hands

You break down and you leave

You go nightly with my panic

I get angry, I can't sleep

But in the summer I wasn't angry

I wasn't tired, I wasn't scared

I just stared into nothing

I just stared into nothing

I wasn't worried, I wasn't tired

I wasn't angry or afraid

I just paced while the days ran away

While the days ran away

To places where you're hiding out

The anger in your eyes

Bright your life of lightning striking

I was afraid to die

A better you inside of me

Afraid that you would go

Before I had the chance

To show the good I know

And in the summer

We'll get a new home

I'll get a new start

I'll get to be

A new better me now

A new better me

I won't be guilty, I won't be sorry

I won't feel angry every day

We'll just wait while the days run away

While the days run away

While the days run away

Shuffling off to sleep

To dream I'd never leave again

Shuffling off to sleep

Dream I'd never leave again

Shuffling off to sleep
