[Intro: Peridot]
Log Date 7 12 2. Today marks the 30th Earth rotation since my capture
[Verse 1: marshall4]
It gets so hard to talk to you, you moved an hour away
Now I have to wait a week or so to go and see your face
The journey takes up time and gas, but it’s all worth the wait
Cause I wanna leave my hometown, I don’t care how long it takes
[Chorus: marshall4]
The things I do to try and make it work
The scars reopened, and It starts to hurt
Blood runs from the wound and it stains my shirt
I guess I never learned, I guess I never learned
[Verse 2: marshall4]
I'm so glad you could come along
You're just in time for the end of the world
We can go and sing a song
Or we can watch as the ocean unfurls
Chunks of rock are raining from the sky
I should be frightened, but I start to cry
Even though this is the last of my life
I'm glad to spend it with you by my side
[Chorus: marshall4]
The things I do to try and make it work
The scars reopened, and It starts to hurt
Blood runs from the wound and it stains my shirt
I guess I never learned, I guess I never learned
The things I do to try and make it work
The scars reopened, and It starts to hurt
Blood runs from the wound and it stains my shirt
I guess I never learned, I guess I never learned
[Refrain: marshall4]
My eyes are glazed over a lack of sleep
My mind’s is racing, maybe there’s still hope for me
The tide is closing in around my feet
I think I finally know what’s wrong with me
I'll scale the mountain I see in my dreams
Drowning in words, I'm falling apart at the seams
I'll find a way out, didn’t think that I would get this far
If I go high enough, I think I'll make it to the stars
