lyrics

Everything is upside down
and we are here to watch
a life on repeat
a claim to defeat
Trembling islands
blindly nestled on the idling light
of not pushing on
so carry on

Day by day
in wonderment of all
of all the years
the past
living on the devils water
turning hearts cold as an eve
straylight come in
why don't you bring in the wind
straylight shining
light a way into the end

Oh futures
collapse into my frame
warm our hardened souls into
a new familiar
Oh futures
keeping us alive
fighting each and everyday
for clearer eyes and sweet goodnights

Sweet lady alcohol with your lines
you've rehearsed them all the time
trapped inside the screen alive
confide to separate rooms
and the bills are high
at each others throats
no communication to make do and mend
and you pray to god
as you told me
god saves the ones who help themselves

Oh futures
collapse into my frame
warm our hardened souls into
a new familiar
Oh futures
keeping us alive
fighting each and everyday
for clearer eyes and sweet goodnights

So tell me
did you fall into the sea
as your eyes were set on the american dream
so did reality become your gravity
wrapped in everything
as the time passes away
Though I still love you to death
through the years of sleepless nights
paradise is lost forever
so tell me now
were not design inside to fail
we were meant to melt together
as long as we exist
We are alive!

Oh futures
collapse into my frame
warm our hardened souls into
a new familiar
Oh futures
keeping us alive
fighting each and everyday
for clearer eyes and sweet goodnights
