Dandelion seeds fill the sky
I remember making wishes once
Casting dreams beyond the stars
Yet virtue now is but a distant drum
First time that I kissed someone
All the world lost its urgency
Felt my wings extend full span
But time's corroded them mercilessly
Stiff, my breath ain't as resolute
Can't see past the stupendous walls
Scared of shame, I shroud my scars
Sensing sand slipping out my palms
Always struggled grasping time
The more I take, the less I have
Hopes that used to fuel my walk
Have since but sapped all the strength I had
All I was sure would never change
Seems oh so different now
I'm no longer making any wishes
Dandelion seeds hit the ground
♪
And I don't know when
I let go of dreams and hoping
If only I could peek
Beyond the wall and see
What I once thought was me (ay, ay, ay)
But it's out of reach (ay)
Flutter past passions
Life was a vast mattress
I felt your wings turn into fins, I guess we swimming now
We made a home within this wishing well
You get it?
Well, we picked through every coin we found
And wished we'd found the point we drowned
We built a fortress from the fortunes from above
Dreams amorphous, it was gorgeous
But of course, it was your drug
I think my clock stopped ticking at 11:11
Ladybugs coat my sentences to preface the message
You always bruise my heart
You blew apart my shooting star again
We broke the surface too fast
Like what'd I do, I got the bends, whoa whoa
"Why'd you run from me?" I said to myself
Everything is gonna change
I'm tired of wishing, so I sit in my well
I'm just counting all the change
And I don't know when
I let go of dreams and hoping
If only I could peek
Beyond the wall and see
What I once thought was me
But it's out of reach
