Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I spend most of my time
Tryna work out what I'm going to say
For example today
I did not leave the house
And I wrote to people far away
Hours away
[Verse 2]
Don't sail away in your mind
Have you always been like this?
Conspiring with lightning?
Don't fade away
You're on the brink of something great
[Verse 3]
Stay, don't go
Stay, don't go
Stay, don't go
Stay, don't go
Stay
[Verse 4]
I spent most of the night
Tryna take back all the time that it took
In a borrowed book
I write things in the margins
That you wouldn't understand if you looked
But why would you look?
[Verse 5]
Don't sail away in your mind
Have you always been like this?
Conspiring with lightning?
Don't fade away
You're on the brink of something great, great
[Verse 6]
I take the white shadow from you
I give you what I can give you
I curse the burden that's on you
But I can't take it all away
Broken glass in the river
Reflects a crumbling pillar
Break the branch that is withered
Cut it into something
Turn the wheel of tomorrow
'Cause you like dreaming in the grass
Decant of your sorrow
Into a clearer glass
[Verse 7]
Endless soul
Unbending light
Already whole
All is right
[Verse 8]
Don't sail away in your mind
Have you always been like this?
Conspiring with lightning?
Don't fade away
You're on the brink of something great
Great
[Verse 9]
Your white shadow
I'm in your white shadow
Your white shadow
I'm in your white shadow
Your white shadow
I'm in your white shadow
[Verse 10]
Your white shadow
I'm in your white shadow
Your white shadow
I'm in your white shadow
