Until You Fall Asleep

I'm lost in the aether
My body has gone weak
The life underneath me
I can hardly speak
When we fall asleep
Where do we go?
When we’re awake
How do we know?
Do we wait in our dreams?
Do we fake everything?
The water is deep now
I can hardly see
I’m going under
One last chance to breathe
Will you wait?
Will you wait for me?
Don’t know if I’ll be coming back
Will you wait?
Will you wait for me?
I won’t be coming back
When we fall asleep
Where do we go?
When we’re awake
How do we know?
Do we wait in our dreams?
Do we fake everything?
How long were you gone?
The lines have been redrawn
I waited patiently
Til you started to breathe
When we fall asleep
Where do we go?
When we’re awake
How do we know?
Do we wait in our dreams?
Do we fake everything?
Do we wait in our dreams?
Do we fake everything?

Approaching the atmosphere
Static bursts and draws in near
The first time I heard you say
Your signal lost along the way
This time I’ve locked in flight
Running through an endless night
Cold pause, silent sound
Only lost if never found
We drift apart
Can’t go back to the start
Blinding light
Distant star
Do we collide?
Are we too far
Away?
So close now but can’t find
All these things we left behind
A pulsar, a signal turn
Have little but this time to burn
Without hope we wither
Sailing on this empty river
My message, no reply
Nothing comes I don’t know why
We drift apart
We can’t go back to the start
Blinding light
Distant star
Do we collide?
Are we too far
Away?
Away
Away
Away
I wanted you to stay
You seem so far away
I wanted you to stay
You seem so far away

Running Out of Time

I try to sleep
I just can’t take it
But I don’t want to make it
I try to leave
I just can’t fight it
But I’m losing despite it
I’m holding out
I’m learning how
To find the pieces of my mind
A someday near
Without you here
So please, I’m running out of time
I want to live
I try to forget it
But I don’t want to let it
I want to fly
But I try to deny it
I'm learning to hide it
I’m holding out
I’m learning how
To find the pieces of my mind
A someday near
Without you here
So please, I’m running out of time
I’m holding out
I’m learning how
To find the pieces of my mind
A someday near
Without you here
So please, I’m running out of time
As I wait
I fall into your grace
That never came
As I wait
I fall onto my face
Always the same
I want to make
To make you mine
I’m running out of time
I want to make
To make you mine
I’m running out of time

If hope lies in the heart
This truth
Could tear us apart
So far out of reach
We divide
This one world for us each
Once you were
The only in my world of silence
I thought I heard you scream
Once you were
The momentary ordinary
I thought I saw you dream
Is that how it felt?
When we saw
the hand that we were dealt
The lies that we said
Did we listen
to the voices in our head?
I’m done holding you
And I hope
I hope that you are too
If we’re here
If we’re letting go
My shadow
I wanted you to know
Once you were
The only in my world of silence
I thought I heard you scream
Once you were
The momentary ordinary
I thought I saw you dream
Alone again
Alone again
Once I called you my friend
Alone again
Never again
Never again
I hope we make it to the end
Never again
