in a message that was sent to me
before we had even yet begun
it made me out to be some kind of villain
but there was nothing that I could’ve done
of course you appeared to be innocent by comparison
maybe i’m not really your mortal enemy
i’m just an arrow you couldn’t outrun
all i ever wanted was for you to feel the same as us
i know you were struggling
at first to make sense of the sound
but by the time you put it all together
the ship was already on the way down
of course you couldn’t help yourself
creating meaning from it all
there’s only one thing you can be sure of
it’s that there’s no coming back from the fall
all i ever wanted was for you to feel the same as us
all i ever wanted was an everlasting peace
and to put this whole thing behind us
and finally be free
