I see this song as an attempt to find clarity in the midst of chaos. These words seemingly wrote themselves on the paper as they flowed so nicely over the melody I wrote when Osca and I were working through the production on the track.
Verse 1:
Don't know my way home
Still run as fast as I can
We’re growing older
Can't repair things you can't hide
Not like yesterday
Oh now you got time?
Can’t go there tonight
Told you, I'm far from home
Swear this feels like the first time
Still cold, I see my breath
Still love May and all those sunny days
But I don't know if I'm alone, that I won't call it tonight
Verse 2:
Oh I faked it all, me and my flaws damn yeah
Can't believe everything i imagined, happened
Honestly that just makes everything a lil' sadder
Prophecy telling me things don't get better ay
No way, no way, no way
