lyrics

Look at me, I banished you
From my thoughts, you stole a few
Take some space inside my mind
Never won my race with time

I fold my wings and start to run
Replacing the stars with the sun
The things I’ve done

Thought some space could unify
Toss my fears into the sky
Gave it all, and gave it then
Gave my heart so it could mend

I fold my wings and start to run
Replacing the stars with the sun
The things I’ve done
The things I’ve done

Camouflage your iron door
Thought we could be something more
Pack my bags and face the tide
Thought that you would stand to fight

I fold my wings and start to run
Replacing the stars with the sun
The things I’ve done
The things I’ve done
The things I’ve done
The things I’ve done

I know you’re scared that we’re loosing
What god could keep on believing?
I look into whatcha doing
No mind to what you are choosing
I know that we are all the same
Our tears fall onto our face
For the things we’ve done
For the things we’ve done
For the things we’ve done
For the things we’ve done
