about

Mourn who you could have been. Live as who you are.
Reach for who you could still become. Work towards change.

This song is about having a foot in each world and struggling to reconcile them. If you are here, too, I see you.

lyrics

Lay your flowers at my grave.
I will meet you there, and I will do the same
in mourning for these stages, never set.
This field is full of lives I never lived.
Weather-worn and aging,
a framework, rearranging.

And I know the past won't change,
but I dream if I obsess enough, then I might find a way.

A millstone: a toxin, pumping through my veins.
The unknown: an option I could never take.

Stumble down the coastal slope,
shaking off the filthy dregs.
Disconnect from what might have been
as the ocean sprays against my bare legs.

And I know the past won't change,
but I dream if I obsess enough, then I might find a way.

All the things I'll never get to be
stretch from the past into infinity.

And I know the past won't change,
but I dream if I obsess enough, then I might find a way.

All the things I'll never get to be
stretch from the past into infinity.
