CASPER

[Intro: Quadeca]

I wanna go somewhere

Why can't we just go somewhere?

Can we go somewhere that waits?

That won't move away from us? (From us? From us?)

Oh

There's a vulnerable feeling

Oh, woah

That's a place that ain't leaving, leaving

[Verse 1: Harry Wilkinson]

The answers I found

Overexposed

You were born with a lot to correct

You were born with a puzzle to solve

You're not high, you just became a child

Returned to a path, hidin' in overgrown grass

If you didn't chase it

It would have stayed still

The horizon is a prey-like animal

That preys on men who pray like animals

And now it takes form, and takes flight

It can take you anywhere you like

Open your hand and your palm

Drown out the countdown to the alarm

The line curves into a path through clouds

The tail wrapped in waves, its mouth covered in sky

I prayed one last time, but I didn't know

It can smell fear on your breath

And the sweat in the hands of a man

Who has never forgiven himself

And the answers I so desperately crave

Will cover me in the shape of a cave

Removing a stone from a roof

Held together with nothing but tension

I could end the world

With one slip from the other side of the ceiling

I accept your answer

I was just a pretender

Who learned how to surrender

At least I know something you won't

In the bigger picture, where I extend beyond the frame

Your world will end at home

And to you, that will be good enough

My world ends so much worse

And so much harder

To me, that is better

To it, we're the same

And to everyone

To everyone

[Instrumental Bridge]

[Verse 2: Harry Wilkinson]

The captain stands alone, arms to the sky

The symphony of loneliness, unheard upon its own

He cracks a bottle, it's the only friend he knows

Years of no expression left him bitter, comatose

The rain is torrential, he gives a toothless grin

About to meet the devil, projections from within

Lighting strikes the ocean, illuminating fears

The depth reflects his mind, his time is getting near

Counting every moment, wish away the minutes

Waves as big as mountains, strung out to his limits

The blankness of oblivion, reality sinks in

Consumed by the roar of fear, a thousand voices grin

Heart pounding, he finishes the bottle

Climbs up to the sail, clutching, wishing for tomorrow

While all his crew were taken, lost to the ocean

The ghost of his friends begin to haunt him, spirit broken

Vanish like the stars on a dark, misty night

Evil housed the wind as it barks in his mind

The thunder splitting eardrums, like the sound of metal snapping

Because fate is getting closer, faith was always lacking

Time is of the essence, embrace or let it go

A solace inside courage, intuition always known

But the darkness so consuming, the only life he's shown

Is that heaven's open wide, it's hell on earth he knows

[Instrumental Outro]
