about

A song about diverging friendships and an endless pondering of what comes next and what living really is. All on the road to nowhere.

lyrics

It's the month before we start our lives
but I wonder if we ever will try
You see reality hurts, it kicks you and distorts you
your shell emerges lifeless and gone

But I'll delay my fate this once
before I slave my days away for a prize I'll never see

You were once an adventurous youth
and you wouldn't let a weight tie you down
You adapted and adjusted, you led by example
and no one could have dragged you around

But I don't even know
If you could open up your eyes so I could look into your soul

I can see the sunset on the desert sky
The road goes on without turning, the days flashing by
And yet we are still in yearning, lost in our time

And it might be some day that I turn out this way
I can tell here that I'd rather not now
It's an empty existence and I hope you get through it
so some of you remains in the end

But I don't even care
If it brings us apart because I've changed and I want to live

Looking over the cliffs at the ocean in the sun
We could live this way and find our battles won
Why would you run away before it all comes undone?

Find my way to a slow descent
I could wait for months and years
and if you're gone I will mourn a friend
I won't go through this again

I can see the sunset on the desert sky
The road goes on without turning, the days flashing by
And yet we are still in yearning, lost in our time
