Lyrics

Time Spent, Too Long

Why has it been so long?
Forgot to live while you were gone

When there's no place to go
And no one left to know
The trees that line this town
Won't hold me, hold me to this ground

I'll pick apart at these memories
And overthink what you want from me
But how you go I'll never know
When will this feel normal again?

Well does the dream match the sky
To fill this void when you lie
When I try to escape this time
I close, I closed my eyes
Why can't it fix my mind?
The first to try, but it dies
Once you walk away this time
I'll be fine
You'll be fine

(But you leave far from this place)
Because I thought this was right
(I truly wish you would stay)
But no one wants to be wrong
(But you leave far from this place)
I'll never know what you want
(When truly I hope)
And I hope you find what you're looking for
In my setting sun

Next time I'll be gone
And you wrote
(I've spent too long inside
I just might move along)
Time spent, too long
