about

Written in Caspar, CA at Old School Studios

lyrics

we met on a moving train - dreaming big city dreams
the wanting you cannot shake
suddenly me and you - everything feels new
the ache in it starts to fade

now we're free from our memories - 'cause it's only you and me
we won't let it get away
they all said the same thing, but we'll do it differently
we won't make the same mistakes….

then we built this, our metropolis
now we're asking if it's really all there is

when you're so close - but so far away
yeah i'm so close…. but i'm so far away….

it comes - it comes - it's coming ever faster
it's all - you are - that memory you're after
you push - you fall - you let it get away

i beat - i claw - i'm scratching at the surface
i can't - get back - now i am disconnected
can you help me, help me find my way?

be my compass - be my guide
be my roadmap - help me through the night
be my compass - be my guide
be my roadmap - help me through the night

yeah we're so close…. but so far away…..
