I heard a story about a young boy and illusion Taking off his pride to what lays in store They keep saying, "that he'll only be forgotten To love this life leaves you wanting more" But to know the way is not in vain I can feel you say don't you slip away In the morning there's a cool wind breeze about you But it hides at night tethered to your core There's something greater about the way you always see it And to trust yourself when they come in fours He screams out, "the way is not in vain" I can feel you say don't you slip away Don't you know I'm bound to leave it? MIA blowin' out the speakers No more bets here left to call Goin' off to Wichita I can feel you say don't you slip away
