lyrics

it was like flying, flying
to touch the broken stones and say
sift it, sift it
let the memories fade away
find a better place for them to stay
it was like dying, dying
reborn on a saturday to
lift it, lift it
holding up the pieces of the game
to show that it'll be okay

and I never thought, and I never knew
that one can hold the sky, if one only chooses to
and when you dream, you move in a sea of memories
follow them to bring yourself back to you

it was like breathing, breathing
fresh air on an autumn day
with lungs filled, not left still
a spell to help me push the pain away
find a better place for it to stay
it felt like living, living
not holding onto yesterday
the broken pieces of a
life not meant for me anyway
I think that I might be okay

and I wouldn't change, so I never grew
and I couldn't touch the sky 'cause I didn't want me to
but if you dream, you move in a sea of memories
keep the ones that lead you to the best of you
the pain you hide could never be the real you
