[Verse 1]
Got up early, found something's missing
My only name
No one else sees but I got stuck
And soon forever came
Stopped pushing on for just a second
Then nothing's changed
Who am I this time where's my name?
Guess it crept away
[Chorus]
No one's calling for me at the door
An unpredictable, won't bother anymore
And silently gets harder to ignore
Look straight ahead
There's nothing left to see
What's done is done
This life has got its hold on me
Just let it go
What now can never be
[Post-Chorus]
I forgot that I might see
So many beautiful things
I forgot that I might need
To find out what life could bring
Beautiful things
[Verse 2]
Take this happy ending away
It's all the same
God won't waste this simplicity
On possibility
Get me up, wake me up
Dreams are filling this trace of blame
Frozen still, I thought I could stop
Now who's gonna wait?
[Chorus]
No one's calling for me at the door
An unpredictable, won't bother anymore
And silently gets harder to ignore
Look straight ahead
There's nothing left to see
What's done is done
This life has got its hold on me
Just let it go
What now can never be
[Post-Chorus]
So many beautiful things
So many beautiful things
[Outro]
Now what do I do?
Can I change my mind?
Did I think things through?
It was once my life
It was my life at one time
Now what do I do?
Can I change my mind?
Did I think things through?
It was once my life
It was my life at one time
