Slower
Mineral
It's been so long since I've been by myself
And I need this more than you will ever know
People like you and me never felt the breeze
People like you and me will never know the easy way
I scream into the wind and laugh as the words slap me in the face
I would gladly trade a lifetime of convenience for an honest day or two
It's just not the same when you're staring into a perfect golden sunset
And thinking about how you sold your soul to send the rain away
It's been so long since I've stood on my two feet
I'd really rather lay here and pretend but people like you and me never get
that peace
It comes from denying that everything is so screwed up
It's so screwed up
I stand on a building and throw up my arms to the sky
I swallow my pride and admit that it's not always best to understand the reason
why
It's just not the same when you wake up in the morning with a smile on your
face
When you know you lied yourself to sleep to make it better
Make it better
