lyrics

Aimlessly pacing, stepping forward in time, wandering and dissatisfied
Directionless quest to the end of the line, body engulfed in a lack of light

Face melting silence in the hearts of my mind, why does none of this make any sense
Tunnel trapped traveler near the end of their rope, and I thought you’d end up better than this

Still continue pressing on with my stride,
There is no real danger but my thoughts won’t abide
Then something far gone pierces through light,
But brain loves playing tricks that break all my feelings
Hope this isn’t one of those illusions
That’s alright cause if it is I’m prepared for it

Hopelessly hopeful start sprinting ahead
Every single notion is riding on this motion
As I run closer, glimmers start to enlarge
From the earth, from the hole, I finally emerge

And it’s all alright

Took a moment just to appreciate this
Took a moment just to enjoy
Thought about it as coincidence
Could it be fate or just a ploy?
Did it seek me out intentionally?
Destiny or nothing at all?
Maybe it's neither or maybe it's both
Speculation cannot be my fall

Sun once in sky, personified.
And he matched the species, but all the more pretty
Here to help me, to set free, to love

Worries all fled, Safety again
As I let down my guard, confident there’s no harm
Feel closure, contentment, decent

Comfortable with, basking in it
For the rest of my days, feel the light, it’s okay
Please don’t take my, light source, away
