I'll hold weightless words above your head You won't even notice The last thing on your mind was the only prize The ocean sings a sweet song I can see it in your eyes Only to the grave Collapse against the windward ground You'll promise to be safe and sound Watch as the limbs of the trees sway Escape is only a breath away I can taste the promise of better days Oh I can taste the promise of better days Sleepwalking on the tip of a tongue that can't pronounce Forgotten words are the beginning stages Far worse than our hearts we keep locked up in cages So taste the promise of better days Collapse against the windward ground You'll promise to be safe and sound Watch as the limbs of the trees sway Escape is only a breath away I can taste the promise of better days Oh I can taste the promise of better days I've watched the seasons change along with you all The leaves from up above cut like razors as they fall The ocean sings a sweet song I can see it in your eyes Only to the grave Sleepwalking on the tip of a tongue that can't pronounce Forgotten words are the beginning stages Far worse than our hearts we keep locked up in cages So taste the promise of better days I'll hold weightless words above your head You won't even notice The last thing on your mind was the only prize
