about

past & present

(it either moves u
or it takes you by the throat
all those things life throws you
and takes back
the past
the things that were
present
and the things that will
what are they
where are they from
where are they going
it's hard to catch a breath
sometimes,
somehow)

lyrics

(it either moves u
or it takes you by the throat
all those things life throws you
and takes back
the past
the things that were
present
and the things that will
what are they
where are they from
where are they going
it's hard to catch a breath
sometimes,

past & present
moving fast
and i stand
somewhere
in the middle
of a room full of paintings
looking at all
of those lifeless faces
thinkin' to myself

"is this what
we are becoming too
some kind of dead"

past & present
moving fast and i say
everything changes way too fast
i should be more afraid
and go out to feel the sun
on my skin
'cause it's the only thing
that makes me feel alive
here in this crowded town
full of people
screaming
shit

and i tried
to survive
and i tried to cover up
all of my bones with
some kind of happy
but i couldn't find
my way home
i was heading north
i was heading west
people told me
"girl no you are south"

oh and i tried
to make it out alive
in this mess around me
but the past and the present
they kept
talking loud
and loud
and loud
and louder
ah ah ah
ah ah ah ah
they were so loud, so loud

and i tried
oh i try

soft & slow sounds
from somewhere
between the sea
and the sky
hoping to comfort one
somehow,
sometimes
in the darkest times
