lyrics

Slow burn in midsummer's dim
dreams lost with these warmer winds
and the state of apprehension has shown me
what you love can start to fade into only

far away, a cloud, a mist
safely going gone

seeing all the lights
that have led you through each night
fine if everything still could change
stretching out your arms
cause you're sensing the alarm
that the world won't wait for you now

good words are as good as bad
time hurts, we're assured of that
there are actions worth the strain of no foresight
some accept and some, well they can never be right

wiser blood is rising now
and you're feeling odd
seasons past were filled with plans
futures to be done

seeing all the lights
that have led you through each night
fine if everything still could change
stretching out your arms
cause you're sensing the alarm
that the world won't wait for you now
