Catching Lightning

[Verse 1]
I don't want to connect
I just want to forget
I get closer to what I wrote from the feather I get
I don't want the regrets
So let them blow hurricanes
Take your finger off the button briefly covers up the pain
If it's going to rain then let it
Empires are [?]
Bigger shoes to step in, you couldn't make the effort
So let me just turn off the lights and
Make sure your seatbelt's fastened tight and
Any minute we'll be catchin' lightning
No struggle and suddenly feel more enlightened
I shouldn't be, I suddenly feel like writtin'
The greatest symphony
Soarin' over landscapes
Back soon physically
Don't count the time this mind takes

[Verse 2]
I don't want to just live
I want to forgive
We're living seconds is the method to madness within
Momentarily undercover let go of the strings
Monumentally incident and not know anything
We're just cloning the kings
We've all lost pride so we know that it stings
No man alive has got time so no folding our wings
"Your paradise is inside" then I'm owning this thing
Switching my earth's rotation, it's cold in the spring
Maybe this life's a broken arm that we hold in a sling
Crumble that sticky lucky charm that I fold in a slim
I never let you come to [?]
Pick a grenade, pull the clip, and let go of the pin
