Copyright 2025, Sam Reid [verse] I’m gonna risk it all, I’ll climb beyond the pull of your gravity; Where I can never fall, So why does your orbit trace back to me? [verse] My heart is cast in led— A tireless, ticking clockwork machinery; The unsaid things we said Condense in every breath from you to me. [chorus] Reckless a hundred times, I'll never learn, inexorably aged; Awkward as stilted rhymes, which cannot end if I never turn the page [verse] Before I’d seen it all— The kaleidoscope of you, your imagery— Before the leaves can fall, A quiet boredom dulls our savagery. [verse] I’ll soar to unseen heights, Where horizons curve and I can see the end; Through darkness cure my sight, and circle back to when you were a friend. [bridge] When you and I were one, And all the moons conspired to protect us, Before we come undone, victims of time and turn to rust. [chorus] I’ll never fly again, Nor venture past this mem'ry ridden part; I’ll never know again If we shone the light or just ignored the dark [outro] I’ll never fly again, Nor venture past this mem'ry ridden part; I’ll never know again If we shone the light or just ignored the dark
