lyrics

Like a book you read in the forest, or fireworks you saw when you were 2: the ending often came before you realized. It’s the end of another era, often without your consent. Was it all just a dream?

Lift up these covers, let it all out 'cos we got no time to doubt. Climax approaching, the sun’s coming down. Let this chapter end for now. Sometimes it feels like you’re caught in a play, and you’ve got no lines to say. But from this cliff I’ll hang.

Is there a secret to be had to keep your mind at ease when all these conversations still have yet to grow cold, but every single second takes a lifetime to unfold? This life’s a balancing act, and I’m the character in scene. Stuck in-between, just being.

Lift up these covers, let it all out 'cos we got no time to doubt. Climax approaching, the sun’s coming down. Let this chapter end for now. Sometimes it feels like you’re caught in a play, and you’ve got no lines to say. But from this cliff I’ll hang, from this cliff I'll hang.

You’ve got me on the edge, on this cliff left to hang.

I’m the character in scene. Stuck in-between, just being.
