Skywards

[Verse 1]
Across the open field and out towards the lake
A lifetime to consider a moment of escape
Selling him had currency, the waiting everyday
But your regret won’t bring him back, and silence ends the day

[Pre-Chorus 2]
The cracks in your story will leave you numb
When running in circles we come undone

[Chorus]
You’re out in the wild again
So stop staring upwards and face your pain
What’s skywards is not to blame
Just keep facing forwards and walk in the light again

[Verse 2]
Across the iron ocean there’s comfort in despair
This boy consigned to black and white, and memory can’t repair
In everything you see in him, the faces on the wall
Your weeds are growing faster now, suffocating all

[Pre-Chorus 1]
The cracks in your story will leave you numb
When running in circles we come undone

[Chorus]
You’re out in the wild again
So stop staring upwards and face your pain
What’s skywards is not to blame
Just keep facing forwards and walk in the light again

[Pre-Chorus 2]
The angels won’t hear your unanswered prayers
And upwardly wishing won’t lead you there

[Chorus]
You’re out in the wild again
So stop staring upwards and face your pain
What’s skywards is not to blame
Just keep facing forwards and walk in the light again
(Walk in the light again)
(Walk in the light again)
What’s skywards is not to blame
So keep facing forwards, away from the skywards
Just keep facing forwards and walk in the light again
