LIGHTSPEED

I keep the door cracked
So I know that
If a new path
Opens up I can take it
And leave what I’ve built to fall

A couple contracts
From a while back
Have a few cracks
I’ve thought lately ‘bout breaking
But what’s the point after all

I thought when we all got older
We would get much closer
To having it figured out, but

I kinda like the way it sounds
A combination of the waves crashing over my house
When it’s built on solid ground
Couple miles from the coast, somewhere you can’t pronounce
I finally see what’s coming
The part of me gone that’s waiting
Proof of a home invading
I found the light here, this light year, at light speed

It’s kinda abstract
When they say that
Like a hard fact
“Give it time & you’ll make it”
What does that mean at all?

What’s the contact
For the call back
Cuz the impact
Is enough that I’m fading
And I’m feeling so small

I thought when we all got older
We would get much closer
To having it figured out, but

I kinda like the way it sounds
A combination of the waves crashing over my house
When it’s built on solid ground
Couple miles from the coast, somewhere you can’t pronounce
I finally see what’s coming
The part of me gone that’s waiting
Proof of a home invading
I found the light here, this light year, at light speed

Light here, this light year, at light speed
Light here, this light year, at light speed
Light here, this light year, at light speed
Light here, this light year, at light speed
Light here, this light year, at light speed
Light here, this light year, at light speed
Light here, this light year, at light speed
Light here, this light year

I kinda like the way it sounds
A combination of the waves crashing over my house
When it’s built on solid ground
Couple miles from the coast, somewhere you can’t pronounce
I finally see what’s coming
The part of me gone that’s waiting
Proof of a home invading
I found the light here, this light year, at light speed
