Lyrics

The more that you hear it
 The more that you don’t
  
 The lesson is trying
 The fear is you won’t
  
 Seems they’re all winning
 You try just to float
  
 Its a constant sound
 You’re running in the wind
 It’s a blaze of light
 You’re motionless
 Take back what you put in
 And hope it never ends
  
 I take it too seriously
 Too keep ahead of the joke
  
 My fingers keep bending
 Still searching for the note
  
 I feel like I’m acting
 The fiddler on the boat
  
 Its the ice at dawn
 Straight ahead
 You wanted to steer
 You know you can’t
 Take back what you put in
 You hope it never ends
  
 Are we looking for answers
 Or just filling in the holes
  
 The problem with living
 Is one day you won’t
  
 Major to minor
 With a slow beating pulse
  
 And forever chords
 You learned as a kid
 That endless hope
 Of all thats ahead
 And never get old
 Stop living in your head
 Chase the moments of bliss
 They’ll outshine the bad
 If you believe you can be loved
 You’ll outlive your past
 And you hope it never ends
