Growing Up 04:21
Rising, from the frozen earth I've been waiting since my birth for you, You and all you'd mean to me Grown up, sprouted from the soil I would work and I would toil for you, You and all the light you bring Stepped out, stepped into the light And I was paralyzed by the sight of All of your grand designs It's true, and you know it, too You and I are through And I can't get it through my head Falling, falling from the sky I'd been hoping I could fly But no, no it wasn't meant to be And it's true, and you know it, too You and I are through And I can't get it through my head

Traveling 03:02
All this time that I've been traveling, it's unraveling the truth How have I only just began to seize my fleeting youth? All along, I had dreamed But it wasn't real But it wasn't me And if I could divine a reason why Maybe it would set me free And if I could just understand where I am meant to go Why home doesn't feel like home, how is a man to know? All along, I had dreamed But it wasn't real But it wasn't me And if I could divine a reason why Maybe it would set me free

Take Flight 04:11
We'll pack up all our things and hit the night You can hear our ears ring, as we take flight All of the questions that we had before None of them answered but we don't care anymore We had guessed and we'd checked, and it still fell through And now all that is left are me and you And all of the reasons that we'd remained here Seem to dissolve and now we're in the clear All of the questions that we had before None of them answered but we don't care anymore Now here we arrive at the end of time And neither you nor I have found peace of mind And all of the questions that we had before None of them answered and they won't be ignored
