Looking back seems I’ve always been gauging, Just how long I can go without changing
Always looking for that lost elation
Soak it in while I lay in the backseat, Hear the crack of the snare in the backbeat
Drown it out with my newest desperation
Chorus
There’s a light, deep inside, I try to dull, stumble blind, just feel my way through it
But there’s a vein, full of gold
Trapped in stone, this I know, if I can only carve through it
Instrumental (verse structure)
Study maps while I go through my daydreams, Passing cars in my way like I’m racing
Stay awake ‘cause I worry bout direction
Every mile lays some hope for the future, Signs and lights join the roads like a suture
Driving on for that true connection
Chorus
Bridge
It’s so close I know it’s real, though I can’t see it or feel…but soon I will
Chorus
Instrumental
Outro
Looking back seems I’ve always been gauging
Just how long I can go without changing
Always looking for that lost elation
