[Verse 1]
This ship was only ever built to fall apart
The oceans that we couldn't cross
The London Bridge is caving in
Cities melt into my skin, it's looking thin
[Chorus]
Where my heart is, there's never a home
These wooden doors are closed and this prison's cold
In my glory bowing out to the crowd
Returning to the ground
[Verse 2]
Winter birth, the fires burn into the snow
Surrender to the afterglow
Letting mist dissolve the light
The darkness, oh, it burns so bright
I'm turning blind
[Chorus]
Where my heart is, there's never a home
These wooden doors are closed and this prison's all alone
In my glory bowing out to the crowd
Returning to the ground
[Instrumental Interlude]
[Outro]
What a moment, encountering the dawn
I'm breathing in the air that I've never known
In my glory bowing out to the crowd
Returning to the ground

This was the very first song I wrote for the project, and for that reason it’s really special to me. It’s about understanding how short life is, a “Vapour” as such, and therefore why it’s so important to find the light and joy (as hard as it sometimes is) in the situations we’re put in.
