They're writing pages out of whispers
But will it matter in the end
Maybe I'll paint my own existence, yeah
Learn how to draw you at the end

Day one, I'm hopeless
And day two, I don't recognize myself (recognize myself, no)
Day three, I'm focused
And day four, can't help but despise myself (despise myself)

Keep staring at the ether
Waiting for some guidance

Traded in my favorite game
To find a greater meaning
In all the melody spent on someone else
Remember when you rattled my cage
To show me the door was wide open

On our way down the mountain (on our way down the mountain)
Kept up me right when I wanted to bend (wanted to bend)
On our way down the mountain (on our way down the mountain)
You made me the king of our descent (king of our descent)
Waited all my life to find it
Does it validate the grinding?
When every drink I ever poured into my cup, I drank it
Waited all my life to find it
Did it validate the grinding?
When every ship I took the to time fashion up, I sank it

Keep staring at the ether
Waiting for some guidance

Traded in my favorite game
To find a greater meaning
In all the melody spent on someone else
Remember when you rattled my cage
To show me the door was wide open

Oh, oh
Remember when you rattled my cage
To show me the door

Things I defended
When I was dependent on someone else (on someone else, yeah)
Now that we're stranded
I feel I can finally define myself (define myself)
