Across the open field and out towards the lake
A lifetime to consider a moment of escape
Selling him had currency, the waiting everyday
But your regret won’t bring him back
And silence ends the day

The cracks in your story will leave you numb
When running in circles we come undone

You’re out in the wild again
So stop staring upwards and face your pain
What’s skywards is not to blame
Just keep facing forwards and walk in the light again

Across the iron ocean
There’s comfort in despair
This boy consigned to black and white and memory can’t repair
In everything you see in him, the faces on the wall
Your weeds are growing faster now, suffocating all

The cracks in your story will leave you numb
When running in circles we come undone

You’re out in the wild again
So stop staring upwards and face your pain
What’s skywards is not to blame
Just keep facing forwards and walk in the light again

The angels won’t hear you unanswered prayers
And upwardly wishing won’t lead you there

You’re out in the wild again
So stop staring upwards and face your pain
What’s skywards is not to blame
Just keep facing forwards and walk in the light again
Walk in the light again, walk in the light again
What’s skywards is not to blame
So keep facing forwards away from the skywards
Just keep facing forwards and walk in the light again
