from here to the end of the world
from here for all the backyard dreamers
from here to the ones that resist
any bitterness
lets take the next train or bus
lets get from station to station
we'll have it our way
we'll be alright
another name on the map
we're gonna chose
swim or drown
from here to the end of the world
from here to the ones that keep on
hoping for a better chance
confident
we’ve got no time to waste
no regrets we gonna take
non stop on the interstate
keep me awake
so, take my hand,
look how far we've come, we've come
our trapped minds we'll leave behind
should we go any further
one place after another
learning lessons day by day
unafraid
i might as well chase the sun
i might as well drive on
i might as well stay that long
i might as well hang on
i might as well chase the sun
i might as well hang on
another name on the map
we're gonna chose
swim or drown

isn't it like you said,
it's not a wonder
just a loss
of symmetry its become
like you knew back then,
like you always knew
we can't get back to the state
of being easy
while we even consider this,
take it and wear it out
stop the loss,
get rid of the burden
on our backs, on our backs
the sky's the limit, the sky and
my mood, once said it's said
the sky's the limit, the sky and
my mood, once said it's said
while we even consider this,
take it and wear it out
stop the loss,
get rid of the burden
on our backs, on our backs
and the best advice
i got from you
a tribute to be true
like you knew back then,
like you always knew,
always said
once said it's said

so embracing,
a feeling of gratitude,
something to hold on to
next avenue i'm drifting in,
sidewalks fading,
sun burning
on the back of the car
can we save the best we had
can we try not to forget
whoever said the opposite
can we make a difference
a secret place
where dreams fit in
can we, can we
the weight is kinda massive,
i messed it up
once again, nothing left out
where to fit in,
what's the walking distance,
have you seen,
have you seen the skyscrapers
have i told, have i told you,
whom i've seen,
who's lately gone,
yes i've heard that too
and yes i remember,
another nice anxious try,
no i didn't mean it like that
the weight is kinda massive,
i messed it up
once again, nothing left out
where to fit in,
what's the walking distance,
have you seen,
have you seen the skyscrapers

i never thought I had to admit
that i’m a part
of the whole scenario,
always in need for remedies,
structures, tests and beliefs
i wanna know
where you want to go,
i’m missing the comfort
i found in you,
and it already seems
light years away
that we tried to work things out
feeling the push,
somewhat awake,
counting the facts,
and not to forget
feeling tired in a way,
tired of inhaling
the cities breath,
stuck in my lungs
for hours and hours,
unable to give it a name
just for a day, just for a while
just for the words i have to find
just for the lines i’ve got to write
just for the thought I redefine
a compromise i had in mind
a best guess taking all the time,
taking all the time
i never thought i had to admit
that i’m a part
of the whole scenario,
always in need
for remedies, structures,
tests and beliefs

getting on, i earned
your sympathy,
a new defence, no offence
a picture, a letter,
a scream, not forever,
couldn’t weigh the waste
big letters, low lights, we said
we’re acting clever,
couldn’t weigh the waste
getting clean, previous tragedies,
a thin line, a disguise
a picture, a letter,
a scream, not forever,
couldn’t weigh the waste
big letters, low lights, we said
we’re acting clever,
couldn’t weigh the waste
the art of saying goodbye
being honest this time
pour some salt in,
dazed, in chains,
i’m caught in a world
waiting to be changed
getting up, a symbolic act,
chronic black clouds,
we have found
a picture, a letter,
a scream, not forever,
couldn’t weigh the waste
big letters, low lights, we said
we’re acting clever,
couldn’t weigh
the waste

almost 14 weeks, couldn’t calm down,
a bit too confused, really nothing new,
still a matter of perspective
coming into force,
it’s been here before,
never really gone,
somewhat overdone,
still human nature
we’re getting used, new exceptions,
passing by, leave it or trust it
what to do, which combination,
getting used, new sensations
with a sense of open mindedness,
the next trend, not an enlightenment,
unwired, it will come back in circles
i’m aware of it, learned my lesson,
got a fairly good view, i still think of it,
i still live with it, leaving room
next to the edge
building up, tearing down,
kept in silence,
not a single sound, i must admit
that’s what comes along with it
i’m aware of it, learned my lesson,
got a fairly good view, i still think of it,
i still live with it, leaving room
next to the edge
we’re getting used, new expressions,
cast a light on clichés and gestures
what to do, which indication,
getting used, new revelations
with a sense of real kindness,
the next trend, always denying,
unwired, it will come back in circles

stepping out, breathing in, taking seats,
no revenge, your demand
i can't accept, can't deny, taking time to realize,
you’re on the better end
searching for different views, with a use and an attitude
changing lists, get a grip, and write it down
on greeting cards from a place too far
it's come to this, and feels a bit
like you don't miss what's given
a different name, the same old game, electrified
in the flood all we’ve got is the motion unleashed
in the flood we won't stop, no we won't leave
kinda lost, kinda stuck, living with the routine
in the flood the motion is all we got
now we don't give a damn about it if we can
different name, same old game, the only chance we had
in the flood the motion is all we got
stepping out, getting free, i count on you,
yeah i'm good at it, are you?
the next escape, what a fake, don't you have
a million doubts in account
seeing things as they are, as they were,
will they ever be, yes indeed
pay the bills, rely on skills, living with daily ups and downs,
unannounced
try to see beyond
try to see beyond the ocean
try to see beyond
beyond the ocean
in the flood all we’ve got is the motion unleashed
in the flood we won't stop, no we won't leave
kinda lost, kinda stuck, living with the routine
in the flood the motion is all we got
try to see beyond
try to see beyond the ocean
