(Verse 1) I’m staring at the ceiling in the quiet of the night Watching shadows dancing in the pale street light Every choice I made, every turn I took Feels like a chapter in a well-worn book I see the same mistakes, the same old ghosts Haunting the shores of the things I love most I’m trying to run, trying to break the chain But the tracks in the mud look exactly the same. (Chorus) Will the past be my future? Will the cycle repeat? Am I just a ghost walking down my own street? Is the road up ahead just a mirror behind? Or can I leave the wreckage and the worry behind? I’m reaching for the dawn, but the dusk is so near Will the past be my future? That’s my only fear. (Verse 2) I hear the echoes of the words I shouldn’t have said Ringing like a bell inside of my head I see the faces of the people I let go In every new stranger I’m starting to know I’m building a house on a shifting foundation Caught in a loop of my own creation Is there a version of me I haven't met? Or am I just a collection of every regret? (Chorus) Will the past be my future? Will the cycle repeat? Am I just a ghost walking down my own street? Is the road up ahead just a mirror behind? Or can I leave the wreckage and the worry behind? I’m reaching for the dawn, but the dusk is so near Will the past be my future? That’s my only fear. (Bridge) They say time is a river that only flows one way But I feel like I’m drowning in yesterday I’m pulling at the threads, trying to unwind The gravity of everything I left behind Give me a compass, give me a sign That the path I am on is actually mine. (Instrumental Break) (Chorus) Will the past be my future? Will the cycle repeat? Am I just a ghost walking down my own street? Is the road up ahead just a mirror behind? Or can I leave the wreckage and the worry behind? I’m reaching for the dawn, but the dusk is so near Will the past be my future? That’s my only fear. (Outro) The past or the future... Which one am I living? Is it a lesson? Or a slow forgiving? Looking forward, looking back. Trying to stay on a brand new track. Will the past be my future? I guess I’ll find out... Tomorrow. Tomorrow.
