[Verse 1] I watched the years fall down from the wall, Like fading paint under the heavy rain. I held a younger self, frail and small, In an old photograph, but looked in vain— That face didn't belong to me at all. [instrumental] [Verse 2] The road shifts right underneath your feet, Until you turn around to see. The place you left on the silent street, Is farther than it used to be— A ghost that you can never meet. [Chorus] I built my life with open hands wide, Then watched it slip right through my fingers. Every love left a scar deep inside, Every loss left a space where pain lingers. I used to chase the shape of tomorrow's light, Now I just let it come, without a fight. [instrumental] [Bridge] The world keeps turning, night and day, We weren't built to stay this way. Let the old fade into dust, To become the ones we must. [instrumental solo] [Final Chorus] I built my life with open hands wide, Then watched it slip right through my fingers. Every love left a scar deep inside, Every loss left a space where pain lingers. I used to chase the shape of tomorrow's light, Now I just let it come, without a fight. [Final Chorus] I built my life with open hands wide, Then watched it slip right through my fingers. Every love left a scar deep inside, Every loss left a space where pain lingers. I used to chase the shape of tomorrow's light, Now I just let it come, without a fight. [Outro - instrumental]
