[Verse 1]
I’m ashes, post-flame, all the coal that disintegrates
I’ll just lie here quietly, sink into the earth’s defeat
As I watched you grow dull, wonder how you stay so cold
Always knew something was wrong, never chose to play along, here
[Chorus]
So sit down, shut off, I don’t know how I let you lead so long
'Cause right now you’re only holding me back
'Cause I’m not where I want to be, and you’re not who I wish you were
So I’ll rest my eyes and we’ll try in another life
[Verse 2]
While I was eating off the floor, alone and drowning in my thoughts
Your gut was full, still wanting more, you wanted more
[Chorus]
So sit down, shut off, I don’t know how I let you lead so long
'Cause right now you’re only holding me back
'Cause I’m not where I want to be, and you’re not who I wish you were
So I’ll rest my eyes and we’ll try in another life
[Bridge]
I walk this road, behind you now
I feel so lost 'cause you’re never gonna turn around
Down cobblestone, I scream your name
I fight your past 'cause you’re never gonna feel the same
I walk this road, behind you now
(Drown myself in this peaceful lake)
I feel so lost 'cause you’re never gonna turn around
(Feel the water pull me away)
Down cobblestone, I scream your name
(Maybe there’s a place for us down here someday)
I fight your past 'cause you’re never gonna feel the same
(I’ll see you again someday; I promise I’ll see you someday)
[Chorus]
So sit down, shut off, I don’t know how I let you lead so long
'Cause right now you’re only holding me back
'Cause I’m not where I want to be, and you’re not who I wish you were
So I’ll rest my eyes and we’ll try in another life
