Jaded

The time begins to slow down
That once in life we look around
Over time the brain gets numb
And we feel that we've lost the spark
The days get a little bit longer
Our hearts beat a little bit stronger
Who's to say, the way we play is outside of the rules of the game?

Opening eyes and the time seems to fly

But happiness is what I desire and so I must venture to find that same fire
That warmed my heart for those many nights when I laid there with an open eye while
Pointed towards the ceiling where the black had transformed into the beauty that is your face

Just wanna feel again

Drift away, you're taken

Open your eyes can't you see that you're blind
She's been right there in front of you this whole time; wishing you had all the strength to confess and to open your arms to a world with your bliss; but you
Can't, she's a star in someone else's sky...
She's taken
