Lyrics
If I do nothing, will you find a way to be free?
If you say nothing, then it can’t be a lie, can’t be a lie,
I flew a thousand miles, but I’ll never be close enough
For me to do nothing, or say nothing,
I should know better, ‘cause there’s been worse,
Race towards the light, the darkness gets there first,
Black tar seeping across the greenest of pastures,
Would it be magic if I had the words?
You’re floating, lost your tether,
So close I can reach for you,
If I do nothing, will you find a way to be free?
If you say nothing, then it can’t be a lie, can’t be a lie,
I flew a thousand miles, but I’ll never be close enough
For me to do nothing, or say nothing,
You’re too far to reach,
You’re the one who always sparked the flame,
You held the door open, kept us all awake,
I should’ve known better, you masked the pain,
Now you’re cloaked, your floating for our sake,
If I do nothing, will you find a way to be free?
If you say nothing, then it can’t be a lie, can’t be a lie,
I flew a thousand miles, but I’ll never be close enough
For me to do nothing, or say nothing,
You’re too far to reach,
Beyond the air, do you remember?
Turn your head so I can reach for you,
If I do nothing, will you find a way to be free?
If you say nothing, then it can’t be a lie, can’t be a lie,
I flew a thousand miles, but I’ll never be close enough
For me to do nothing, or say nothing,
Try something new,
To do nothing, or say nothing, be something to you,
I’d crawl a million miles,
But I need you to meet me in the middle,
For me to do nothing, or say nothing,
You’re too far to reach
