I'm falling out
With everything around me now
Losing what I used to be
And I'm over it
They have been to the moon
I'm just a caterpillar dead in my cocoon
Swept by my mind's typhoon
And I'm all at sea
I wish it could be different
Wish there was [Am7]no dampness here
Oh we shouldn't have listened
To the angst and [Bm]the fear
I had it all
Rivers of gold and [Bm]forest so tall
But I ɾan my [A]canoe down a waterfall
Started a wildfire
I wish it could be [Am]different
Wish there was [Am7]no dampness here
Oh we shouldn't have listened
To the angst and [Bm]the fear
I wish it could be [Am]different
Wish there was [Am7]no dampness here
Oh I shouldn't have listened
To the angst and [Bm]the fear
Here I sit in silence as it's ɾising at me
And I'm afraid that I'm not taking my [A]chances
How do I know it's light in the horizon [C7]that I see?
I've seen questions, but never answers
Darkness to [C7]me is only water to [C7]the sea
I've only ever heard of drought
I used to [C7]be [Am]the one with the grandest of dreams
But how can hope keep believing through the war?
