Lost Along The Way

(album: Tell Me I'm Alive - 2023)

Can we start this record over?
Can we paint with different colors?
Can we dig the garden up and start again?
I want to tear out all the pages
Of this book I've had for ages
'Cause the words I'm reading now don't make no sense

Solitary and confined
Lost my way and lost my mind
The walls are closing in around me now
Swimming through the solar rain
Washed away the salt and shame, I'm reaching out
But can you find me now?

So meet me where the stars collide
The Milky Way is ours tonight
Your gravity is more than I can take
I've come so far to find you here
I burned up in the atmosphere
And there's no going back but that's okay
I got lost along the way

Now time is moving slower
My spirit's getting lower
The rush of blood is music to my veins
I'm spinning in the shadows
The dark side of my shallow beating heart's the only way to start again

I'm solitary and confined
Lost my way and lost my mind
The walls are closing in around me now
Swimming through the solar rain
Melt away the salt and shame, I'm reaching out
But can you find me now?

So meet me where the stars collide
The Milky Way is ours tonight
Your gravity is more than I can take
I've come so far to find you here
I burned up in the atmosphere
And there's no going back but that's okay
I got lost along the way

No way back to where you are
I can't see past this dying star
Stellar clouds surround you now
And I'm so lost without you
Falling just beneath the edge
Event horizon, full eclipse
Stellar clouds surround you now
And I'm so lost without you
I'm so lost without you

Meet me where the stars collide
The Milky Way is ours tonight
Your gravity is more than I can take
More than I can take
I've come so far to find you here
I burned up in the atmosphere
And there's no going back but that's okay
I got lost along the way

I got lost along the way
I got lost along the way
I got lost along the way

And I've come so far to find you here
I burned up in the atmosphere
I know I can't go back but that's okay
I got lost along the way
